    Default A Guide to Historic Thurso by Alan R McIvor

    Well today I received my copy - a gift from a kind Caithness friend.
    I must say I am really pleased with it and can thoroughly recommend it to all whether you are local or a visitor.

    This little book is easy to handle and will fit into your pocket as you walk around Thurso. The pictures are good and the print clear and easy to read.
    It's full of snippets of information - just enough to keep your interest as you stroll around.

    I like the fact that it is 'smudge-proof' most of my town guides are covered with grubby marks - chocolate or picnic goodies, which will not wipe off !

    Listed also, are three town walks clearly marked and numbered on the map.

    Well done Mr McIvor, I like it.

    Trinkie ( a Weeker !! )

    Default Thurso Guide

    Oh I’m singing the praise o’ the new Thurso Guide
    A Booklet I’ll keep so close to my side,
    As I roam aroond Thurso, baith far and wide
    When I next cross the Ord till Caithness.

    This booklet so bonnie and shiney and new
    Tells me of places I really must view
    The stories and walks if I miss, I will rue
    When I next cross the Ord till Caithness.

    So, I’ll pick up my stick and put on my boots
    And head till the north – the land of my roots,
    The Guide’s in ma pockid - the Cheers and the Hoots
    Will tell me I’ve landed in Caithness.
