    What concerns me is the lack of any form of lucid explanation. We were five grown adults, blue sky, sunshine, nothing ghostly in the atmosphere & yet our proposed days' work just ground to a halt. The elderly gentleman with his ancient but extremely reliable roll film camera was, to his incredulity & dismay, robbed of a record of what was a long- awaited & very special occasion for both he & his wife. The owner of our hotel, once he had established where we had been, mentioned a cottage a few hundred yards beyond ours & known to be haunted. Accommodation for letting is almost unobtainable on Barra, yet this cottage, with it's reputation, lies empty.

    Does one just accept the comment by prof.Archie Roy, re poltergeists ? He is incidentally, a professor of astronomy & you can't get more down to Earth than that (awful joke ! ). The behaviour of the equipment was beyond what I can accept. For years before & years after, no indication of performance failure ever occurred again.

    Any further thoughts or suggestions will be very welcome. Thank you, gamba

      I think it was a tourist gimmick:
