Noble Friends, Especially Fellow Scots,
Today the BBC is reporting the discovery of a Pictish fort on top of a
sea stack off the Aberdeenshire coast:

. Why the Picts would put a fort there is interesting. Maybe a watch
tower of some sort? Seems to me it might actually be a monastic retreat
like those on the small islands near Lindesfarne.
Yours Aye,
Lord Mungo Napier, That Crazy Scot
