Sir Clive Sinclair's C5 mini car, introduced in 1985 never became established as personal transport for the able bodied but his concept of a small electrically powered vehicle for one person gave rise to the mobility scooter for the disabled. The Riverside Museum displays include a C5 and an early mobility scooter. In connection with the vintage vehicle event on 22nd June 2014, members of the public had the opportunity of trying out a still operational C5.

Castle Sinclair Girnigoe was the home of the Sinclair family, Earls of Caithness.
Girnigoe Castle was built around the late 14th to early 15th centuries on a rocky promontory, and was defended on the landward side by great ditches, spanned by drawbridges. The main feature of this castle is a three or four storey tower house, probably completed towards the end of the 16th century although there are the remains of 15th century buildings beneath it. During a period of redevelopment at the castle in the early 17th century, George Sinclair (4th Earl) obtained an Act of Parliament to change the name from Castle Girnigoe to Castle Sinclair. However it appears that the two names became associated with different parts of the castle leading to the impression that there were two castles on the site.
The Campbells of Glenorchy briefly occupied the castle after emerging victorious from a battle with the Sinclairs. In 1680, George Sinclair of Keiss, who later became the 7th Earl, removed the Cambells by force, partially destroying the castle in the process.

Christine Sinclair
From "swords to plowshares," following the Revolutionary war, the Founding Fathers took up farming with advice from British mentors like Sir John Sinclair, a Scotsman, Founder and President of the English Board of Agriculture and author of several books on the subject. The English Board maintained relations with 7 leaders in the newly independent United States: John Jay, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Rufus King, Dr. Enoch Edwards, and William West -- these men were all made honorary members and exchanged letters with Sinclair and other gentlemen on the Board from 1793 - 1819, despite the many fluctuations of diplomatic relations between the 2 sometimes adversarial countries.
Following his negotiation of "Jay's Treaty" in November 1794, the ratification of which was pressed by George Washington himself, Jay returned to America; he brought back with him, and personally delivered, many agricultural books and letters from Sinclair and other English authors to his colleagues(one of these included a document for Washington from Archibald Cochrane, the ninth Earl of Dundonald, today considered a founder of Britain's chemical revolution - it was a treatise on the connection between Agriculture and Chemistry - these books are in the Boston Atheneum's collection.)
On July 10, 1795, Washington wrote to John Sinclair to "extend my sincere thanks for the views of agriculture in the different counties of Great Britain, which you have had the goodness to send me - and for the Diploma (received by the hands of Mr. Jay) admitting me a foreign honorary member of the board of agriculture."
Jay's personal correspondence with Sinclair included a letter dated November 7, 1797 where Jay expressed thanks for lessons shared. Jay describes his family's soil in Rye as "rich, being a black mould, on a strong loam, with clay under it & manured every year with Dung from the barn yard." In fact, contrary to the prevalent wisdom of crop rotation, one field in particular at the Jays' Rye farm was regularly planted with potatoes year after year, except during the Revolution years of 1776 - 1783, and it still yielded consistently good results.
But eschewing complacency, Jay decided to see if he could improve on success and proudly detailed his own experiment to Sinclair: "Last year I planted a small piece of ground (not rich, stiff and inclined to bake)...and the fact was, that the Rows where the Dung was placed over & upon the seed Potatoes yielded more than the Rows where the Dung was placed under them." John Jay owned or had studied many of these British books himself and undoubtedly thought the reasoning in chapters on "various modes of improving land " and "improved system of summer fallows" were worth consideration in the colonies, including Rye, New York.

The Sinclair ZX-81 came after the ZX-80 and before the Timex Sinclair 1000. As shown here, it came both in kit form and pre-assembled. It featured a 1K memory (not a typo) expandable to a whopping 16K with a memory expansion pack that generally required a large rubber band to keep it attached. It had a ghastly membrane keyboard that featured the ability to type entire programming keywords with one keystroke. This was the gnat of early 1980's computers.
