The concert

Our internet monitoring unit has been busy at the weekend searching for snippets of information out there from the Westlife gig. Here's a video if you missed the show:

Might be handy for the fan who made it there but still missed it 'what a waste' as she says herself.

No buses to West Life at Cawdor?

A few West Life fans have ended up on the Gurn after searching for information on buses to the concert. Most of them will perhaps be making their way from Inverness but it seems that there is no spare accomodation in the Highland Capital this weekend (P&J report here), such is the interest in the Cawdor concert that fans are being advised to try Nairn with all beds full in Inverness. It could bonanza time for the town's taxi services this Saturday as fans try and get up to Cawdor. Hopefully the roads will not be too crowded but some concerns have been expressed in the P&J:

'However some fans are upset that there is to be no public transport to the castle.
Angela Mackay, 45, of West Mackenzie Park, Inverness, predicted traffic jams on rural roads around the castle and said that buses should have been laid on.
Les Kidger, of promoter CK Events, said: “We are anticipating a fair crowd to come from 9am onwards.
“We have facilities set up for them and will be looking after them.” '
