Thank you, G's W, for another historical/pictorial education from Tom Weir. I corresponded with Tom for too short a while, circa 1977, when he resided at Gartocharn. He was one of Nature's Few Perfect Gentlemen. Coincidently, Tom and his sister Molly grew up at 300 Springburn Road, Springburn, Glasgow N1. I also stayed with my Maternal Grand-Mother in the next close, off and on (due to 'parental dysfunction derived from my b*astard, paedophilic step-father'), 1958-1967, at 290 Springburn Road - next door to Dear Molly and Tom. Unfortunately, we never met during that time (I was aged 7-16 years old). Now I will catch up with much more of your appreciated 'Weir's Way' treasure trove. All the best, G. Stay free.

Gold, Silver, Lead, Copper and Iron with more good wood for Charcoal and more constant Water than almost anywhere in Britain for Foundries, Wonder what other Rare Earths Scotland has that could be useful in Electronics.
Tom Weir is a legend. Absolutely wonderful.

Superb television from Tom Weir.
Taymouth Castle was actually used to run civil defence courses for many years after WWII.

I was always sure the Bredalbanes had lost everything because of gambling debts, I must have been mistaken.
