Interesting occupations?I know a guy who goes by the moniker "Scruff" who fishes for Langoustines off the Island of Eigg and then places them in corrugated tubes that float in the sea off his boat. Once he has enough he takes a fast rib to Arisaig and they are loaded onto a lorry heading for Spain. Next time your are in Spain eating prawns they probably came from the West Coast of Scotland.salamandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01910714034167880862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789689551731499139.post-15476061411170352752011-07-29T12:59:29.893+01:002011-07-29T12:59:29.893+01:00love the organza ribbon so pretty and the bronze b...love the organza ribbon so pretty and the bronze birdhouse charm - in fact the charms are all so pretty.
