Cullen is a village and former royal burgh in Moray, Scotland, on the North Sea coast 20 miles east of Elgin. The village now has a population of 1,327. Cullen is noticeably busier in summer than winter due to the number of holiday homes owned. The organs of the wife of Robert the Bruce are said to have been buried in its old kirk (church) after her death in Cullen Castle. Robert the Bruce made an annual payment to the village in gratitude for the treatment of his wife's body and its return south for burial. A recent non-payment of this sum by the government was challenged and settled to the village's favour.
The village is noted for Cullen Skink (a traditional soup made from smoked haddock, milk, potato and onion) and its former railway bridges, two of which are now part of the national cycle network. These bridges were required, at considerable cost, due to resistance to the railway line being routed any closer to Cullen House. The most westerly (and by far the longest) viaduct is highly photogenic, and often features in tourist guides and Scottish calendars. Near Cullen is the peak Bin Hill, visible from some distance, such as from Longman Hill.
Cullen has a very long history, and a remarkably well-documented one thanks to the survival of a number of sources. These are summarised in two key books: the Annals of Cullen by W Crammond (1904) and the Church Annals of Cullen by W Robertson (1938). The first deals primarily with the civil governance and the latter with church governance up to the disruption. Cullen received royal burgh status between 1153 and 1214 AD during the reigns of Malcolm IV and William I. It is also known to have received a charter in 1455 AD from James II. The burgh was abolished in 1975 by the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973.
Cullen is noticeably busier in summer than winter due to the number of holiday homes owned. The village has an impressive beach and golf course, and the Crannoch wood which offers good views of the area. The 1,086 feet (331 m) Bin Hill or Bin of Cullen is a nearby hill with an associated footpath.
Cullen was the setting for Doris Davidson's romantic novel The Three Kings, named after the three rocks at the east end of Cullen beach. The local writer Simon Farquhar set his first two plays, Candy Floss Kisses and Elevenses with Twiggy, in the village and they were produced by BBC Radio 4. Samuel Johnson had less passion for Cullen. According to James Boswell, writing in The Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides, the pair considered that Cullen had a comfortable appearance, though but a very small town, and the houses mostly poor buildings. Dr Johnson was also disgusted by the sight of the dried haddocks broiled that they were served for breakfast there and refused to eat them. Of course given the general views aired so freely by Dr Johnson this is mild indeed.

Lovely Ladies and Cullen Skink
Cullen Skink is a wondrous soup basically made from smoked haddock and potatoes. Its name derives from the village of Cullen on the Moray Firth.
According to Wikipedia the 'skink' name comes from...
Skink is a Scots word for a shin, knuckle, or hough of beef, which has developed the secondary meaning of a soup, especially one made from these. The word skink is ultimately derived from the Middle Dutch schenke shin, hough[3] (cognate with the English word shank and German Schenkel, 'thigh',[4] and Schinken, 'ham'
Cullen Skink is easy to make and absolutely tastes divine - you must try it!

New Orleans Sidewalk Artist, Conan ~painting Australian skateboarder jumping river
A birthday gift for my teen son who had just graduated high school in Outback Australia. Conan adds a sun, moon and cactus growing in the water, saying skaters like he himself once was (and claims still is:) will always find a place and time to skate -- in the heat of day (sun), dark of night (moon), over mountains, through water, around cactus' and any other obstacles....
A special forces Army Ranger during the Gulf Wars, Gregory Arthur Conan took up his mother's trade (Parisian artist) after serving two tours of combat duty. In New Orleans he joined the many who follow in the long tradition of sidewalk artists, coping best he can with hardened PTSD-type symptoms, quick temper, outspoken, embattled, standing his ground when passers-by get in his face judgmentally or even physically sometimes. He pushes your buttons to the limits, likely out of boredom or the need for human interaction --any interaction.
We need more Conans. The French Quarter has enough tax-paying Jackson Square artists who show their works along the fence or behind the Cathedral; and gallery artists with leased shops on Royal, Chartres and the side-streets. Some pre-Katrina Jackson Square artists even continue their work online.
Police have beaten Conan to a pulp more than once. They just don't like sidewalk artists, especially those with brash personalities. Conan takes his licks -- even the time they almost killed him, dumping him on a top bunk in jail unconscious. He looked like death warmed-over, face swollen and bandaged, broken arm....
It reminds me of a story I came across about a 19th Century master artist and marble sculptor Achille Perelli who, migrated to New Orleans to escape Italian fascism. His paintings and sculptures are in museums and many local mansions and buildings even today. Interviewed by the local paper while he painted on a Vieux Carré sidewalk, Perelli is quoted scolding local authorities for disrespecting him and other sidewalk artists:
For the artists in Paris, in Italy -- the local people take them into their homes, feed them, shelter them, help them.... In New Orleans, the police shoo us away from the banquette like rubbish! That was more than a century ago. It is unbelievable and a sad statement of human nature that Conan has the same problem with society today as did Achille 100 years ago. Perhaps even worse. ©ThomasBalzac|VieuxCarreTimes.com
