🎤 To watch with subtitles, please click the 'CC' button on your KZbin video player :) Good evening! And welcome to this walk around the rugged, rainy West Highland town of Fort William, a place full of history and spectacular sights, whatever the weather! As for some bonus info on the town, we mentioned how some have said Fort William should change to its Gaelic name 'An Gearasdan' (and I embarrassed myself trying to pronounce it!). While Scottish Gaelic is more widely spoken in the Highlands, only around 7% of the population speak it in Fort William, significantly less than the Outer Hebrides off the Mainland, where around 60% of people speak Gaelic!

Great video again, stopped for lunch there on my 1969 2,000 mile learning to drive trip around Scotland, it worked, I passed first time. In 2014 we discovered Bay Hotels and stayed at The Caledonian just outside the town, it was used as a base for exploring the region and we only went into Fort William twice, strangely to the supermarket where you filmed, for diesel and to get some haggis on the way home. We also passed through a few times exploring during our 8 holidays in Scotland between 2014 and 2020, we were due to visit again in March 2020 but that didn’t turn out well?

At the start of the video, just behind you, in the late 1970s when I was about 13 was the railway station, and outside it was an ornamental well, with a big steel plate covering it, on the plate was a slot where the tourists put paper money in £5s £10s and £20s. A packet of 20 cigarettes was 60p. We used toffee apple sticks with chewing gum on the end to lift the money out. Along the high street on the left was a restaurant/take away called McTavish's that had video gaming machines inside like pacman. We used to spend the money in them We used to buy lobsters from the fishermen down at the pier on loch Linnhe. We took them to the men's toilets in the restaurant, filled the sink with water and made them fight. About ten of us used to gamble on the lobster fights. On the high street years later was a bank before the road was pedestrianised I was sitting in my Rover SD1 the type that the speed cops drove, waiting on my mum. The cops came up and started shouting at me to get my car away from outside the bank. Happy Days.
