Exotic Highland Dancing
Listening to John Beattie on Sports Weekly this morning would have brought a swell of pride to any Highlander. John was in conversation with "shinty guru" Hugh Dan MacLennan and each seemed to be trying to trump each other with descriptions of the wonderful Highland landscape, wildlife, weather and the multitude of sporting and music events available to anyone heading up the A9 to Inverness this weekend. Those included, of course, the and the festival at Dores.
Which doesn't explain why the Zed family decided, en masse, to get out of town and head for the seafront at Nairn. Until, that is, you realise that the bandstand there was the venue for yet more antics, including a quite memorable display of belly-dancing which left onlookers- men, women, children even dogs - open-mouthed with appreciation.
I had actually been thinking of taking up belly-dancing myself, after hearing an inspirational from 麻豆官网首页入口 Radioreporter Dave Gray.
What held me back - apart from two burly men in white coats - was the fear that my physique might not be best suited to public exposure.
Now I'm convinced I could stomach it.
