To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles. But while we have histories which inform us of the several historic invasions, they all seem to me to belittle far too much the influence of the Norse Invasions in particular. This error I would fain correct, so far as regards Celtic Scotland.

Dear MacLeod, It is fitting that I should dedicate this book to you. You have been interested in its making and in its publica- tion, and how fiattering that is to an author s vanity / And what chief is there who is so beloved of his clansmen all over the world as you, or whose fiame is such a household word in dear old Skye as is yours ? A book about Skye should recognise these things, and so I inscribe your name on this page. Your Sincere Friend, THE A UTHOR. 8G54S7 EXILED FROM SKYE. The sun shines on the ocean, And the heavens are bhie and high, But the clouds hang- grey and lowering O'er the misty Isle of Skye. I hear the blue-bird singing, And the starling's mellow cry, But t4eve the peewit's screaming In the distant Isle of Skye.

  • 2003 Bumbling in Scotland Outer Hebrides and Skye Gillie and Robin
    Bumbling in Scotland Outer Hebrides and Skye by Gillie and Robin Whittle 22nd May - 13th June 2003 ________________ “Bumble Chugger” and our four wheel trailer needed a good check over before braving the currently gale lashed West Coast of Scotland. Inevitably the wheel bearings, brakes and brake cables needed attention. A very messy operation but we have found it to be quite essential. The first year the garage did it, but we decided the expense was too much for us, so after finding a trailer centre that could provide all the parts we have carried out the work ourselves since then. The weather forecasts were distinctly bad for the few weeks leading up to the trip. Just in case we were to get good weather we embarked on a course of Marmite, which one of the magazines had said will keep the mosquitoes at bay. 1 Our 9 o’clock start on Thursday morning (22 May) was a bit optimistic, and it was another three quarters of an hour before we were finally packed up and the door locked. A quick ‘goodbye’ to Mr and Mrs Robin, who were hovering around the back door as usual, and we were off. We felt we knew the road to Oxford quite well, having been along it the two previous weekends. On the high ground before dropping down to the Oxford valley, we saw five or six large red kites circling and wheeling. We had seen them on our previous trips and had been surprised to learn from our bird book that their whereabouts was recorded.
