Suggestion for the Wiki-Stressed
Loch An Eilein.jpg

"Come away, human child,

To the water and the wild,

With a faery hand-in-hand,

From a world more full of weeping

Than you can understand."

Some advice to my younger self
  • In an anonymous on-line world, it's better for your long-term reputation to be polite and wrong, than rude and right.
  • "Be careful out among the English". Eli Lapp in Witness. The Gàidhealtachd is mostly a quiet and law-abiding place but don't let that fool you.
  • There is a cabal, so take good care of your friends.
