Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Thank you, Laga! I shall add the books to the mountain of to-be-read.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I don't remember much what the dog is like in the books. What's his name? I've only read two of them.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

In the books, the dog appears to be smarter than most of Hamish's immediate supervisors.

Sounds realistic.

Should I read the books or start with the series?

Laga's timing is a bit off for the puppy sadness. I just rewateched S1Ep5, which is when Wee Jock gets replaced with just plain Jock . After that, it's smooth sailing.

I really enjoyed listening to the books, Zen. I end up fast forwarding through some of the episodes. Take that for what it is worth.

I think part of it is that I knew the characters pretty well before I 'saw' them. At the same time, I think a lot is missed without the deeper character building of the books.

The series is great for the scenery though. Just gorgeous countryside.

thanks for the correction bonny. Weird I remembered it so wrong. Obviously I haven't gotten very far in my rewatch.

Before I edited it, my original post said exactly what you said. I thought it occurred much later in the series...because I'm pretty sure it was later in the books.

I wiki'ed, then rewatched the ep and discovered our error.

So...not weird!

It feels like a season ending episode but how I convinced myself it was the end of season 2 I have no idea. I didn't even believe you when I first read your post. I googled "Wee Jock's Lament" before I copped to my error.

And I've only read two of the books & barely remember Towser being in one of them.

I know!

It's like we were glamoured or something.

Suspicious.
