… model monster made for the film “The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes” released in 1970. …
The photograph at the bottom of this blog shows Holmes and Watson encountering the “monster” as the film reaches its climax. However, the “beast” in our photograph is not the “beast” in the film for it sank without trace in Loch Ness and lies somewhere at the bottom of the loch to this day (well I suspect after forty years it is now a very ragged wireframe ). Two accounts here sum up the loss of the...Read Full Story

We traveled to Scotland in late May one year and were surprised at how much colder it felt than many places in England and Wales. So if you go to Scotland, prepare to dress warm, dress in multiple layers and expect to get wet. Flowers also bloom later in Scotland than locales to the south so expect the first bulb blooms at least 3 weeks later and plan accordingly if you expect to visit gardens. In compensation, most of the public restrooms are well heated and properly cleaned and provided...Read Full Story

A community portal about Loch Ness Monster with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The Loch Ness Monster, sometimes called Nessie or Ness, is said to be a mysterious and unidentified animal, or group of animals, claimed by some to inhabit the Scottish loch of Loch Ness, the largest freshwater loch, or lake, in Great Britain by volume. Nessie is usually categorized as a type of lake monster. Along with Bigfoot and the Abominable Snowman, Nessie is one of the best-known mysteries of cryptozoology. Most scientists and other experts find current evidence supporting Nessie unpersuasive, and regard the occasional reports of sightings as hoaxes or misidentification of mundane creatures or natural phenomena. However, belief in the animal persists among many people around the world, with the most popular theory being that it is a plesiosaur.
