Just for reference, a lot of people are under the impression that one lives "on" an island. Now this may be the case with islands elsewhere, but as far as the Scottish Islands are concerned, one lives "in" them.

In Galeic one would say "Tha mi a' fuireach ann am (IN) Muile, or, "Tha mi a fuireach ann an(IN) Leodhas"

One does not say, "Tha mi a fuireach AIR (on) Muile or Leodhas or anywhere else.

As my good old Gaelic teacher would tell me, it's an island, not a raft!!! You live IN it nt ON it.

Mountainman, who wrote this has a great love of Gaelic - esp with respect to the mountains.

Remember the old rhyme:

A mountain's a mountain in England but when
The climbers in Scotland it may be a Ben,
A Stuc or a Spidean, a Cnoc or a Torr,
A Meall or a Bidean, a Sgurr or a Sgorr"

(That is paraphrased and abridged by the way!)
