Can I have a 'P' please Bob - Scotland

[nigheandonn]

Not a stone

[Tinto63]

Royal College of Surgeons and Anatomy School?

[nigheandonn]

Not there.

The RCS is not RC

It is in fact AS.

Both are associated with islands, but not Scottish islands.

You walk right past it on one of the long distance paths on this site.

[Sgurr]

I am feeling really thick, but can't get it. Can we have another tiny clue?

[nigheandonn]

Sorry, I've just been really busy elsewhere! If anyone gets it, you will

RC and AS are both people, and at least one if them was real!

[Sgurr]

Does the final S in each case stand for Statue?

[nigheandonn]

It does...

[CharlesT]

Probably way off but are we referring to the Rowanburn Clan (Armstrong) and Alexander of that ilk (Lang Sandy) of whom there is a statue in Rowanburn?

[Sgurr]

Robinson Crusoe Statue and Alexander Selkirk Statue? I shall be mad if i isn't, since, for once, it seems to match the clues.

[nigheandonn]

Sgurr gets it! The memorial is to Alexander Selkirk on the site of his birthplace, but the (vandalised) road sign points to the 'Robinson Crusoe Statue', and the hotel is the Crusoe Hotel.

(I knew that one would take a few clues, but I apologise for it being quite as mindboggling as it was - I just have Fife on the brain Although I finished the coastal path on Saturday, so might be able to think about somewhere else now!)

LH's prominence was only recognised five years ago.

[larry groo]

Lamberton Hill?

Resurveyed in 2013 maybe?

That was far too easy. It became a Marilyn in 2013, so we immediately went and climbed it. We still had to get past the guards mind you

[larry groo]

Haha, cheers Sgurr.

Ok...

You can't play the BFR.
