St Kilda................ here we come with Monty
No I'm not talking about our Joey................. but Monty Hall the marine biologist cum TV presenter.
He has a great series of docos called Monty Halls' Island Escape shown on Friday 7.30pm SBS One. At the end of last nights show he mentioned, next show he is off to St Kilda................. Scotland that is not Seaford folks
So if you want to find out about that wild bit of Scotland where our team's name originated, tune in to SBS1 next Friday eve at 7.30pm.

Re: St Kilda................ here we come with Monty
St kilda is a barren windswept place , much like our trophy cabinet !
Lots of birds there and rodents , much like the suburb !
Most islanders left the place years ago , much like our supporters , Hungry !

Maybe instead of the Saints doing a high altitude camp next year in US, maybe a little wintry trip to Scottish, St Kilda and they can confront their demons and get over the "edge of the world" and scale the highest summit?

If you look at the island it has a big 'A' at the left hand end, then a big 'V', then maybe just possibly an 'i' and then sort of a 'd' trailing off at the end.
Remarkable eh?

I have surmised about that idea for some years now- and combine with a bit of world heritage volounteering.
not sure they should take on the means the Original locals took for Birds egg collecting- hanging from and climbing the craigs on the cliff faces.
I read " the Life and Death of St Kilda " last year and a facsinating read on the demise of a community- some of the original St Kildans even emigrated to Victoria- Box Hill from memory
