Subject: Many Thanks - our recent trip to Noss Dear Ian
I was met by Maj Ron Sinclair, as you promised, and
also met
Mary and the Earls' son, Lord Berriedale, at Noss
Head.
We saw the video on Girnigoe with them, and enjoyed
it thoroughly.
It was most impressive to see the work that you,
and the Clan, have instigated
up there.
Ron took us to the Dunbar mausoleum in Wick,which
was very interesting, although
delapidated, and he also showed us the Sinclair
Aisle alongside.
Then we had a quick look at Ackergill through the
kind offices of Mrs Banister,
and I must say the Tower is in wonderful
condition.
We had a fascinating trip up to Wick, and really
were impressed by all that we
saw, and by the kindness we received.
We did not stay up in Wick for the evening as I had
to go back to pick up a set
of Stag antlers ( 9 points ) that I had stalked in
the morning on Dunbeath Estate,
and was being cleaned, and a jacket that I had left
there.
All the best for the future, and for the
Clan.
Many thanks for the kindness shown to my wife,
Lizette, and myself.
Regards
Mark Anderson
