On returning from holiday in Norway yesterday I discovered that my copy of "Flang Your Doodle" had been hiding in the back of the glove compartment of the Macantshronaich-mobile the whole time. (see Picture)
 
It had thus travelled all the way from Bergen to Tromso by road and back down the coast by ferry (ironically on 2001 Mod floating accommodation tub the MS Midnatsol) over a two week period, taking in Voss, Dombas, Steinkjer, Mosjoen, Fauske, Svolvaer (3 nights!) and Narvik.
 
This may well be the closest any AGOFR band has ever come to an international tour.
 
Can any of your readers recall similar humorous AGOFR-tape-stowing-away-in-the-car-and-travelling-a-long-way incidents?

I once found a copy of Vom Your Sproggans had ended up in the boot of the car by some strange means and during the car's MOT it didn't get nicked. Harrumph.
 
But seriously, isn't it uncanny that the one tape which should end up in Norway is the one all about fierce norsemen (or even norse fiercemen)!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Strange or what? Are there unseen powers at work here? i think we should be told. I've a good mind to write to the Daily Mail.

Yus, though, you're right about the strange coincidence whereby, of all the Dun Ringles' magnum opi(?) it's the one about Norwegians terrorising Lewis that went back and invaded Norway. And could well have terrorised it if we'd played it loud with the windows open.
 
Perhaps this is a sign from Odin (or Rev Angus Smith) that the Dun Ringles should go and tour Scandinavia for real - You could go over with John A Maciver next year if he gets invited back.
