    My wife and I took our honeymoon to Scotland around this time of year, and I remember all the lovely yellow gorse in bloom across the west coast.

    If I remember right, some folks call in "whin," correct?

    I recall a lady on the Isle of Ulva telling us, "When the yellow's on the whin, the kissing season's in!"
