Jeremy Paxman & the demise of Loch Maree
Jeremy Paxman endorses S&TC Scotland's seminal Loch Maree film. If the recommendations in the Scottish Parliament's Rural Economy Committee's recent damning report on salmon farming are adopted in full, then the outlook for Loch Maree's sea trout (and wild fish generally in the west Highlands and Islands) will be considerably improved.

Aultbea,Scotland
The Aultbea Hall was built as a cinema in 1941 providing a social and recreational venue for the forces stationed there.
Visit of Valentina Golysheva from Archangel, of the Institute of Philology and Intercultural Communications, The Department of English for Humanities Training, who came to Britain to launch her book, A Flashback to the Russsian Arctic Convoys, on HMS Belfast, on 8th February 2015. The book is dedicated to her father Georgy Golyshev, 1919-44, senior seaman, motor-mechanic of Northern Naval Fleet in Arkhangelsk, who lost his life at Kara Sea on August 12th 1944 in convoy BD-5. After the launch, Valentina travelled to Loch Ewe to see where the Convoys left for Archangel. George Milne, the Chairman of the Russian Arctic Convoys museum project, and also Francis and Mary, members of the project, helped to make the visit most interesting, showing Valentina and Elena Reid, Chairperson of the Highland-Russia Connection Charity, around the area.
For all who are interested in the second world war, and the Russian Arctic Convoys, there is so much to see in the Loch Ewe area, with many buildings very well preserved and unique exhibits to be seen in Inverasdale School, which is open to the public from May until October. The Arctic Convoys ran from 1941-45, with 811 merchant ships dispatched, 707 of which arrived safely, delivering 7411 aircraft, 4932 anti-tank guns and 5218 tanks, with a loss of 104 ships and nearly 3000 crew members. Described by Winston Churchill as The worst journey in the world The Russian people were grateful for all the assistance received from the brave sailors who undertook these perilous journeys.

The Fairy Lochs War Grave - Gairloch
Sentimental Journey by Les Brown (This was the number one record at the time of the crash)
Accident Date: 13 June 1945
Accident Site: Sìdhean Mor / Fairy Lochs (nr. Gairloch)
Region: Highland (Wester Ross)
Aircraft Accident Details
At the time of the accident, this B-24 was on its way home after the war (in Europe) to the United States via Keflavík (Meeks Field) in Iceland. The aircraft had left Prestwick and its route should have taken it over Stornoway in the Western Isles, enroute to Iceland. It is not known why it was overflying the Scottish mainland.
On board was a nine-man 'Ketchum' crew from 66th Bomber Squadron together with six other crewmen from Air Transport Command.
For some reason—perhaps a technical problem—the aircraft began to lose height while over Wester Ross in NW Scotland. At one point, the B-24 glanced the summit of Slioch, a 980m peak overlooking Loch Maree and not far from Kinlochewe. (Incidentally, facing Slioch on the opposite shore of the Loch is Beinn Eighe—the site of an Avro Lancaster crash)
In the process of striking the top of Slioch, the B-24 may have lost some parts of its bomb bay doors. However, the aircraft continued in flight for some considerable distance to Gairloch. At this point, it seems, the pilot was attempting to make a crash-landing. Unfortunately, however, his aircraft appears to have struck the rocky outcrops around the Fairy Lochs. Almost immediately, the B-24 crashed, scattering wreckage over a wide area.
All on board perished in this accident

I'd driven past Aultbea on the occasions I've visited the NW Highlands before; but glad I stopped off for a walk here, this time. Terrific beach nearby!
