Exciting news on the monster to be revealed today. Will it prove to be as interesting as promised or just a damp squid?

I heard a serious talk about this on radio and the first thing said was - there's not enough food in the loch to feed a monster :-S

How big?
There seems to be plenty of possibilities.

Giant eel apparently.

We've visited Inverness several times on our travels, the last time about 12 years ago. They'll get by without a monster but it's big bucks for the tourist trade.

I got a great compliment by a barman in Fort Augustus (at the 'other end') when I was about 30. He asked if I was old enough to drink. He'd never make that mistake now.

Jeremy Wade did a programme about it and he thinks it is probably a Greenland shark.

there is apparently a great likely hood of eels in the Loch, as great as there "MAY" be fish.....
