Subject: RE: Question to Jim McLean-For These Are My Mountains
Hi MCF
It is indeed! When I used to live in Ullapool, I did a sunday morning radio programme on Lochbroom FM called the "Sunday Strupag" and the name kind of stuck.
Cuillin FM are going to start up shortly but the lady in charge will not have Sunday programmes at the moment so it will be a Tuesday Night Strupag. Doesn't have the same ring to it though. Any suggestions?
To digress and veer back towards the thread, the words are none to apt up here where the London gent,who considers himself to be chief of the Clan MacLeod, decided that the whole Cuillin mountain range was his and put them up for sale for around £9 million.
There was a feeble challenge against him but the government did a shady deal with him.
To be fair though, there's no problem with access to the vast majority of Scottish mountains so who cares who owns them!
