 I've a funny feeling the Three Billy Goats Gruff aren't quite to scale. Either that or the Troll isn't. And here's the Skye Troll Bridge that he lives under...  .....except, thanks to Big Billy Goat Gruff, it isn't a troll bridge any more. |

Ho ho ho GG!
But isn't it the ugliest bridge in Scotland? How I miss the old chain ferries out of Kyle, let alone the old postal puffer up the Sound of Sleat to Raasay and Portree; now there was romance.

OK, if no guff about the oil revenues then how about (for starters) funding the burial of the power lines which will transmit the wind and wave generated electricity South, and will otherwise require 200ft high pylons across the Cairngorms and down the A9?
Calum, that's the end of the discussion so far as I'm concerned: if I wished to debate such matters I would do so on a dedicated site rather than here; so far as I am concerned this is a recreational board related to R3 and its broadcast remit, not one for political sniping and point-scoring.

How I miss the old chain ferries out of Kyle.... Ah, the old romantic train journey to the Kyle of Lochalsh through Strathcarron, Duncraig, Plockton.....arriving just to see the ferry on its way out. So a cup of tea and a 'bap filled to order' at Kyle station while waiting for its return. And being young and newly married. Oh dear, no highland fiddle laments please or I really will start getting maudlin. |

They say travel broadens the mind - but in many cases travel has made the mind not exactly broader, but thicker.

All trolls are running away in fear. Lord Byron is coming to protect the realm.
(And there are many Spartacuses and Sportacuses too, and others).
