Speaking of a "sgean dubh". At one time I was a writer for the St
Andrews Citizen doing music reviews. In one of my reviews, I reported
on a group that called itself, "Skiin´ Doo", which is how I spelled
it, but on Thursday when the paper came out they had changed the
spelling to "Sgean Dubh". Unfortunately they did not look at the
accompanying photo, where the lads all had matching t-sirts, showing a
pigeon on skiis.
