I'm not usually given to believing things like this but, you know, I think this ones the real deal. This is the one, THIS IS IT!!! Man, who would have thought. The Loch Ness monster. Of all the worthy candidates out there just beggin for verification; UFOs, big foot, little foot, Heather Graham summoning me from the back bedroom, and it turns out to be Nessy thats not a figment of my imagination. Such a disappointment.

It's a boat and the tentacles are the foam from the wake. The other whitish bit might be a wave wipped up by the wind.

Everyone knows that Haggis dont roam the plains, they are a hills creature hence why they have two long legs and two short legs for running around the hills and the only way too catch them is to get them to turn back on themselves, and they end up rolling down the hill into a net!

Yep it's a boat, the epitical shape coming from the sligt angle of the light and the "tenticles" are the white wake behind. I'll go with what ever Duncan says, he's been there

Well Barry and I have been there as well, 1976-78. So what does our Nessy experience count for, how come Duncan is suddenly the expert, especially since he doesnt believe in Razorbacks as well.
