Make sure you bring your kilt.
The Glasgow Evening Times reported a story last night concerning Culzean Castle in Ayrshire (pronounced Killain)
Former USA President Eisenhower donated a suite of rooms in the castle to the people of Scotand for their friendship to the USA in World War 2. These rooms have been kept exactly the same as a museum to the former President until recently when the trustees in charge of the castle decided this was now outdated and have stored the artefacts away somewhere in the castle and in its place will be ipods and other modern things to remind us of Ike. this has caused quite a furore here and there is a lobby that wants the suite of rooms restored to its original function with Ike's artefacts
