Hardly saw a midge the first couple of days. Then I tried playing the flute outside at the end of the house around midnight, looking across to the lights of Iona. Within a minute or two I was in the middle of a cloud of them and had to beat it back indoors. My host suggested I should have kept playing until they were *all* gathered round and then marched off over the hill taking them with me. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack Campin: 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU; 0131 6604760 <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack> * food intolerance data & recipes, Mac logic fonts, Scots traditional music files, and my CD-ROM "Embro, Embro". ------> off-list mail to "j-c" rather than "abc" at this site, please <------ To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
