Peter writes (with a humourous reference to the recent Troglodyte Island controversy):
'We are now on the shores of Calfsound, and contrary to evidence of footsteps in the sand, and belief in certain circles, I can confirm that they are no longer habitated.
To the far right distance,the land carries on until you arrive at Red Head.'
Date is an estimate.

I've not as yet visited but I intend to do, and I'm too old to cast a net because I'm seventy two. My vision of the islands have been via Tom Weir's chat, thats why it's essential that there will be a visit from me, I'm Matt
