There was a joyful reunion in Ullapool today when Daft Uisdean was reunited with Seamus, his pet slow worm. Seamus had set off on a sponsored walk from Helmsdale on August 1st 1998, to help Woodworm Willie raise money for the Legless Crofters' Association. After traveling for eight years and one hundred and four days, at 1.15pm today, Seamus the slow worm finally arrived in Ullapool, raising a grand total of eight pounds fifty two pence for the Legless Crofters. The Association has decided to buy a bottle of cooking whisky with the proceeds.Well done to Seamus the slow worm.

Is it true that Seamus had a 'skin full' of cooking whisky, too, but somewhere along the road he shed it?
Hello there my good friend Farquar. It's been a long time since you popped in for a wee cooking whisky with me and Woodworm Willie.
Yes, indeed, I believe that Seamus the slow worm did shed a few skins along the way. He shed his tail, too, over by Ben Wyvis back in 2003, so he could pick up some speed. Good strategy - it worked a treat, don't you think?
