Back home to Kintyre

George looked after these also as did Bob Bisset. Was lucky to visit the family with Tommy George and Rob Lewis. And if Lorne sees this post I still use the pan he bought for my wedding nearly 24 yrs ago 😂

Ronnachan, Kintyre

Debi Mcallister these are what I was telling Ross about

Ross McAllister these are the stones Neil was telling you about

Usually see him a few times a year at Stirling sales.

yes Lorne he's over in the west

The wee house has been refurbished a bit since then... Moving the stones, Bodach, Cailleach, Nighean and other children, in and out in Autumn and Spring to "watch over the glen" is thought to be the oldest pagan ritual in Britain, maybe Europe. (That will be a question in next winter's quiz btw) There is also mention of an association with St Meuran and his disciples but some say that was just to draw a veil over an older religion. Not hard to find but you'll need to do your own research... Don't want it to become like the "Fairy Pools" or have some numpty taking a wee stone home as a "souvenir"!

I'm sure these are the stones Black Dan in Balquhidder has been talking about ... the old lady and her many children ... maybe a curse or two too ???? Had had a few ciders when he told me over a pint.... but I'm sure this is what hes made a short film about the myth/story ? So interesting 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Every 100 years another bairn appears apparently. Glen Lyon a very special place x
