I was tickled to finally see an Antiques Roadshow filmed in the Highlands.( Bit behind in Australia) They were at Castle Mey. A nice young man from Thurso Pipe Band played a jig on the bagpipes. It was terrific to see the area my great, great grandparents grew up in. The various accents was unexpected though. They did mention Wick was "just down the road". You live in a beautiful area, you lucky peeps.
Cheers from Australia

Gooday Rhandy.
I took the Mother-In-Law to Castle Of Mey on the day the roadshow was there.
It was the wettest and windyest day ever.:eek:
If my memory serves me right ,was there an Orkney Bouy there that was made out of the skin of a dog and inflated?
