Sir,
I had known for some time of the proposed boundary changes to Argyll and Bute but Martin Laing’s column At Random (The Oban Times, October 26) really brought it home to me how horrendous it would be.
When I first came to live in this place it was known as Argyllshire or Argyll. It was, at the time, a large enough county, one of the biggest in the UK.
