The Daily Drift

Editor's Note: This weekend the local Highland Games will be held and the staff will be there and some of us will be participating in the heavy athletics, i.e., turning the caber (throwing telephone poles for those who are not familiar with the games). So our daily edition will be a complete day's posts albeit a bit later in the day than usual depending on Friday night's Caleidh (pronounced Kay-lee - a party) and the athletics on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Don't hold your breath for Monday's edition being on time either, although we plan on all editions being on time ... but we are Scots and when we party, well ...
