Which airline is flying in, and from where?

Niconcoll, first a proper landing strip, now the road, but where are the Collachs.

Hi mjc, no news on anyone who wants to fly the planes in and out yet. I suppose it will depend on the subsidy, but there are 10 kids at Oban High so the 8-seater ain't gonna be big enough. IW, all the Collachs go to Tiree every Thursday. There aren't that many born and bred Collachs left here, they seem to have preferred Glasgow, but us newbies get pretty fired up about the place.

Thank goodness there's a new post to reply to. By now you may know I was transported onto the Clansman like the Queen (on the tar layer with Andy driving). We (being the 2 deserting barmen and myself) followed Andy who was following Euan (JCB) up the back roads through Oban as I think they decided the tar layer should not negotiate the roundabout. Got to a sharp left on a small lane (perhaps a bridge bit) and enjoyed watching Andy (and right hand man Nobby) try to get the vehicle round, not in one go I might add. Helpfully the police happened to be approaching the same junction and did some head shaking as a queue continued to form behind the layer. I'm sure the person in the taxi behind didn't think they should have to pay the fare. Still, they weren't held up for long and I got home safely despite all the eejits on the road who I'm sure have visited Coll recently and forgotten what fourth and fifth gear are for. I'm sure t'midget and the boys will want to know Andy got the machine back in one piece. Also saw the better looking of the 2 hydro boys out driving a hydro van (strangely enough). Now I'm back (and gutted of course), I'm just wondering who's going to make my scrambled eggs and smoked salmon in the morning? T'was a pleasure seeing you.

Nic... looking for a full time accountant? 拢30k a year. Phoned Coll tonight to speak to the family and am still having withdrawal symptoms 4 days after leaving.

Buzz, no-one on Coll does anything fulltime (except drink). The small bar boy is back, but t'boys are away until Tuesday. I ate your scrambled egg. OK?
