A3. Driving around Loch Awe I love telling how it was formed. None o that geology nonsense. The story of Cailleach Bheur, the Old Hag of the Ridges who guarde the spring at the top of Ben Cruachan but fell asleep and let it overflow and form Loch Awe.#ScotlandHour

#ScotlandHour A6: Impossible to choose top 4 Scottish historic & lore-laden sites - every stone, hill & waterway holds countless stories. Still, these 4 will always stay with me:
Kisimul Castle, Barra | Dunadd, Kilmartin | Ring of Brodgar, Orkney | Dunino Den, Fife

TheBrochProject
A6. Here are some pictures of Brochs, each magical & mystical in their own right!
(I have no pics of Windy Ha' Broch, where a fairie gave powers of piping to a young lad. He became famous! But then he went back & the fairy stole him away, never to be seen again.)

@ScotlandHour In fact, the old gaelic names of the rivers are Allt Coir' a' Mhadaidh (Coire of the Wolf) and Allt Coir' a' Tairnealear (Coire of the Lightning)
So I'd just make up some nonsense about Cú Chulainn fighting wolves by firing thunderbolts from his eyes #ScotlandHour
