Very nice, tho' I think <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.privateislandsonline.com/aigaseuuk.htm#> this </A> might be more suitable for our Caledonian members. Cheaper too, most likely.

I expect you've got to be rolling in it just to pay the gas bill for the castle, so being a Laird (or a pop star) is probably more of a minimum qualification. How about the Laird of Fray Bentos?

I know this is difficult for our nice but sometimes dim neighbours to take in all at once, but in Scotland we use Sterling, not Euros, at least for the time being.

Secondly, lochs are spellt "lochs" in Scotland

Thirdly, "loughs" are how our Irish cousins spell them.

Shall we go through that again?

As far as I know Lough Kee is in County Roscommon.

But not according to another website who claim that "Castle Island lies between Ireland and Scotland.

Rising dramatically out of the centre of Lough Kee, a three mile wide circular lake at the centre of the 350 hectare Lough Kee national forest park, presents a dream opportunity to possess your very own Celtic fairy tale. Once sought as the ideal mystic getaway by WB Yeats, this ruinous three storey 19th century castle extends to 4,000 sq.ft. and is readily accessed by boat from the mainland pier"
.

The website is full of fake Celtic-twilight romantic twaddle (for millionaires) and looks as though it is run by American chancers. Have a laugh at <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.fantasy-ireland.com/castles-for-sale.html>http://www.fantasy-ireland.com/castles-for-sale.html</A>
