Hi Rob:
You out and out Caper you!
I bet you thought Strathspey was only a dance!
Before it was that, it was (and is) a place i.e.
the Strath (wide valley) of the River Spey. It was the way that they did a
particular dance in Spey region that the dance took its name.
This information is useful also for those who think Glengarry
or Balmoral are merely names of men's bonnets.
Aye
Rory
