> Yes, definitely a fan of his books and thank you, I visited Sandaig for the first time last year and was quite moved by the place.
I also felt quite moved. It was a long time since I'd read Ring and hadn't expected to experience anything much there. I suppose being the only person visiting at the time heightened my feelings? The fact that his ashes and otter are buried there too makes it a very poignant location. I've had similar experiences at other places too where significant events occurred. It does make me wonder.
