Where was I? Vol 2

[Bonefish Blues]

No it's not.

Quarry used to extract marble between late C18th and early C20th.

[Bill]

Ah. Still no idea as I'm not a golfist.

[Bonefish Blues]

This course isn't a destination in itself, although some seek this one and others like it out.

There is an infinitely more important reason for people to visit this location from all over the World (apart from the Corncrakes, too )

[Bill]

Alexander Graham Bell's house?

For the Whisky distillery?

Very close, at least in spirit

You're such a tease!

Is it on an island?

[Bonefish Blues]

I do like an island, doesn't everyone?

[williredale]

Jura? For no other reason than I'm drinking a bottle of theirs at the moment.

[Laplace]

I have a sneaky suspicion we haven't left Skye?

[Bill]

Skye is granite, no?

Not entirely, you have Skye marble from in and around Torrin.

I've no idea what the "Ibrox" hint further up is alluding to though.

We've left Skye and the Ibrox reference was just me being silly.

Just for the record there is no limestone on this island AFAIK - rocks are igneous, BUT there is substantial calcium in some form, which has had a significant impact, not least on this golf course & the surrounding area. So much so it has a special name...

[Fishtigua]

It's not Ailsa and it's curling stones is it?

[Bonefish Blues]

No, it's not Ailsa Craig, which AFAIK is just a big lump of rock without a par 3 golf course in sight.

[v15ben]

Not Skye, but close by perhaps.
Is it Islay?

[Bonefish Blues]

No, but we're progressing in broadly the correct direction. You might want to re-examine your working definition of spirit...

[v15ben]

Arran?
Complete guess tbh!

[HenryJM]

If we are going in that direction could it be Arran?

[v15ben]

Spooky!
