Portmahomack is great fun close to Tain and you would love Covesea beside Moray/Lossiemouth,

Thank you, Alan. Two mentions of Covesea in a day, after not hearing the word in the previous 49 years...that's the sort of intel that catches my imagination. Heading off to Google now...

I really need to get up there next year.

Another evocative piece of great writing and confirmation that I need to add Durness to my ‘must play soon’ list. Great choice of ball too!

As one who has known only the game you describe as having been “blown off course,” your masterful prose, describing places preserved in time, stirs in me imaginings in which I can smell the sea breezes, hear the laughter, and anticipate the simple orb as she travels along her intended path or not to the joy and tranquility of my heart. Thanks for taking us with you on these epic tours.
