    Please don't give up on P1M's theads. He's taken us on so many different photographic journeys of the Scottish countryside. Yes, when he first came on board, his posts were a bit confusing to read. But not impossible to read. Its the same words we use, just spelled differently. One thing I learned is that "ken" = "know". Remember that and you'll be OK.

    I had a hard time the first few times myself, then I found that P1M's posts make a lot more sense if you read them aloud with a Scottish accent. After you've done that a few times, you no longer have to read them aloud, but you still need to think in the accent.
