I see some”sheepfolds” on those maps Forfarian. 

Yes.

You can just about make out the dyke round the infield at Bunchaolie on the satellite view.

Beautiful country.

Yes, but I personally wouldn't want to live there in this day and age. 20 miles of single-track to the nearest main road, twice as far to the nearest town, Fort William, and three-and-a-half times as far to Inverness, both via the A82, which passes through magnificent scenery but is a busy road, especially in the summer months.

And as for the climate - it is pretty much the wettest part of Scotland. Then there are of course the midges.

You hadn’t put me off till you mentioned midges. 

John and family must have had a hard life.

You would soon get used to it just take plenty Antihistamine creams

You never get used to it. I speak from experience.

Antihistamine cream helps with the itching after you've been bitten, but it doesn't stop them biting in the first place.

There are dozens of supposed midge repellents on the market, but none of them are really effective.

Fortunately midges don't like sunshine or wind. They only emerge in dull to dark, still, damp weather.

Rain and midges are two of the reasons why I moved back from the west coast to the east coast!
