    A Haunted Scottish Castle

    A tourist was up in the ruins of Castle Girnigoe late one evening when he sensed a "presence." Turning, he saw a spectre, but for some reason was unafraid and spoke to it asking why there had been no proof of ghostly visitors. The ghost answered that if the tourist wished, he could certainly take his picture, and the gentleman took out his camera to do so.

    Sadly, the battery in the flash was as dead as the spectre, and no picture could be taken. You see, the spirit was willing, but the flash was weak.

    Rev'd Father Bill White: Mostly retired Parish Priest & former Elementary Headmaster. Lover of God, dogs, most people, joy, tradition, humour & clarity. Legion Padre, theologian, teacher, philosopher, linguist, encourager of hearts & souls & a firm believer in dignity, decency, & duty. A proud Canadian Sinclair with solid Welsh and other heritage.

    The chill affected the batteries.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

    Just goes to show .... that when you use the spirits the flash tends to go weak .
