Memories

Came across this blog [link omitted] of a visitor to Lewis, whose abiding memories of the island are at best unusual. He travelled up by car from Tarbert in Harris, and couldn't wait to find the turn-off for Callanish, outside the village of Leurbost. I can tell you that it is the first road left after you cross the border into Lewis. It's about 30 miles north of Tarbert. He then traversed the Lewis moor before he found the famed Callanish Stones - at dusk. Our intrepid visitor returned to Leurbost where he proceeded to park his car, which was to be his bed for the night. The grass verges of the A859 were to be his toilet as he consumed gallons of lemonade. Next day he hared up and down the A858 to Carloway and Callanish, again. To my knowledge he might still be there, haunting the moorland road after nightfall, drinking lemonade and weeing in the verges.
