Robin is one of the funniest and most original people I have ever met. I admire his curiosity and his intelligence.
Also, he told me to watch The Asphyx, which is an amazing film.

As the Bram man said (kind of, almost),
"...the fishermen say that we are in for a storm. I must try to watch it and learn the weather signs. To-day is a grey day, and the sun as I write is hidden in thick clouds, high over [Inver]ness."
Be careful out there!
