Is there a new airport on the West Side of Lewis?

Thanks for the compliment. By my information, it'll be waterplanes off Loch Roag or from the loch at Tolsta Chaolais. Other airport sites in the islands include the beaches of Sollas in North Uist, Scarista in Harris, Laig in Eigg and a pretty definite for Ashaig in Skye. Callanish could be a landingstrip of Richard Branson's spaceflights, as some sources hold it to be a marker for extra-terrestrials. See the entry, which will come up later on Saturday, about the alternative landingstrip at Callanish.

On a BA flight some time back the crew were a Capt Alabaster and a fellow called Fishpool. Perfectly OK at flying the plane but where do they get these names. I hope Callanish Air will employ Morrsons, MacDonalds, and Campbells though it's a good idea to keep Campbells and MacDoanlds apart - there's a 'bit of previous' between them I'm told. Anyone else got any mad surnames for people in public transport? Is this the sort of thing you're after? Sorry for one moment I thought I was from Harris!

Well the in-flight food is sorted then with Ronnie McD doing the burgers, Campbells doing the soup and Morrisons supplying the trolley dollies. I suppose Agnes Anne M will be signing up for a pilot training programme. By the way Iona Tractor told me about this great website for the The Western Isles Transport Preservation Group: http://www.witpg.org.uk/buses.htm It brings back a few memories of the boat bus, Lewis Motors, etc...
