I'm in Vancouver right now and don't have access to all the old Creag Dubh and Clanchattan Journals but I have my own daily journals here and in the summer of '77 I was in Edinburgh for the Scottish Tourism events there, at the Macpherson Gathering at the Newtonmore Games, the Field Sports at Moy Hall with the Clan Chattan Gathering, the Gathering at Achnacarry, an event on Skye, the Argyllshire Gathering at the Oban Games and the Braemar Gathering. I can't read through the stains on two pages (I suspect whisky ), but there was something in Ross and I must have been at both the Black Isle show and the Nairn. A packed few months. I didn't carry a camera around with me, of course; not done in those days, you know.
