Hi I hope everyone else has discovered www.isleofbute.com and I do apologize if I missed some dashes or full stops in the website name. They have a bulletin board of genealogical queries and various offerings about Rothesay and the island in 2001. The snow scenes currently showing are beautiful, but verra cold. For a laugh, look at the property pages. House prices are way below the averages of the rest of Britain. /cheers Pat
