I will, there seems to be lots of meanings for "Gowk". I'm sure you noticed that Coles likes the cuckoo theory as well. The area from the Onye fork (A96), the Mill Of Carden is here, and go thru to Insch/Premnay ending up in Rhynie (A97), Corrstones etc. is filled with ancient things. It is a very beautiful part of Scotland, then again there beautiful places everywhere which hopefully I'll visit.
There is the a classic term in the north east the "gowk storm " which is the wild period just before the cuckoo arrives . Nancy ? Morrison also had a novel of the same name .
