William Greig at the age of 12 in 1918 started work as a conductor with Roderick MacLennan proprietor of the bus service between the town centre and Kessock Ferry. He was able to purchase the company in 1927 and as previously said sold out to Alexanders in 1947

A little more info; When Bill visited Scotland the second time in 1904 with his Rough Riders Of The World Show he toured all over Scotland visiting towns such as Perth and Dundee and even went as far North as Inverness, the capital of the Highlands.While in Inverness, two of the Indian company Iron Tail and Blue Shield took a trip even further North to John O’ Groats the most northerly settlement on the British mainland. They were accompanied by Mr. Small who had taken to dressing in a kilt while touring Scotland and was the show’s photographer. Iron Tail in Glasgow, 1904 (photo courtesy of Invisible Emperors Ltd) An article in the Northern Ensign, a local newspaper, comments that both Indians were dressed in their ‘Native garb,’ and were ‘decorated with feathers.’ Local onlookers had a totally different view of the Indians. They were convinced the warriors were women!After all, the Indians had long, dark hair and smooth skin on their faces, it was an easy mistake to make… However, the photograph sold well as a postcard, and the incident is a great example of Buffalo Bill’s showmanship and marketing skills.No one knows if Iron Tail and Blue Shield found out what those John O’ Groats onlookers thought. And it is ironic that many of the Native Americans who travelled with the Wild West Show were warriors who had fought during the Wounded Knee massacre. Their lands lost to immigrants, and their culture suppressed by white Europeans, much like the ones they were now entertaining.In fact, the Wild West Show was one of the few ways that the Native Americans were able to preserve their culture, through the display of traditional skills in horsemanship and archery.

Buffalo Bill's circus also came to Inverness in 1904 and set up in what was Dalneigh Farm. A quote from Bill; “With the exception of my own country, of course, I consider the Highlands of Scotland the finest country I ever visited. My only regret is that I am unable to see very much of it in consequence of being so much engaged during the day, and having to do my travelling at night.” Buffalo Bill (Inverness, Scotland, 1904)

Soor plooms

Last time I was in there it was for fish and chips

Don't know that one

​Went in there one night and they wouldn't serve me as I had jeans on

A few here for you IBM

I grew up near the manse. Rev. Macintyre was the minister. He had 3 or 4 children from memory. His son Hamish who was a bit younger than me died skiing on Ben Wyvis. That's not them in the photo though, this was during the sixties and seventies. Possibly at the time of the photo this was still the farmhouse for Dalneigh farm

​It's the Manse now just off St Mungo Road

​Walker's Emporium. They published a lot of local postcards bearing their name. Looks like a postcard stand near the door.

Never knew it was called Albert Place

Red Kite is more than beer.

It's west of Inverness

Is that not the shop,in the picture that Mario had on the other side of the road
