Re: Best Places to Visit in Scotland
From a MacLea/Livingstone point of view Argyll is the obvious starting point, and I agree entirely with Donald and his list of places to visit. It is a magical place and I have been visiting it regularly for many years. There is a lot to see and even after a couple of weeks you would only be scratch...

Re: Scotch Pie
Ooh, what a good excuse! I must remember that when next I eat a really sinful and fattening Scottish delicacy that I am "immersing myself in the culture"! You could say that about cranachan for a start.

Re: Scotch Pie
I don't make my own bridies. In fact we have them very, very rarely. I espied them while I was waiting for the butcher to cut a joint of lamb for me and, in a moment of weakness, bought a couple. My excuse: well, it was a horrible, cold day; Brian was attending a funeral and I reckoned we deserved s...

Re: Scotch Pie
We had bridies for lunch today. They are very good and,like nearly all good things, very fattening!

Re: Merry Christmas
A Happy Christmas and very best wishes for the New Year to you and your family, Niall, and to all MacLea/Livingstones worldwide. Peace and good health to you all.
Hope that your electricity holds out for you, Niall. Ours has --just, although the lights have flickered dangerously once or twice.

Re: Happy St. Andrew's Day
Hi Ginger,
So glad the skirt is still doing the rounds and that you had a great St. Andrew's Night. I think how you manage to come home with haggis inside your bra is one of life's great mysteries; sleight of hand must be definitely involved though!
Slainte Mhath!

Re: Viking find at Ardnamurchan
Probably quite a lot, Donald. Thank you for posting the Daily Mail article about the Viking boat burial, Kyle. I only found out about it when I watched the Scottish news yesterday evening, but the BBC said nothing about it being a boat burial. For interest's sake, there was a splendid boat burial di...
