First reference to the Loch Ness Monster is in Adomnan's Life of Columba, c. 690. Columba sees the monster as he travels to Inversness to attempt to convert King Bridei of the Picts. I don't think Columba managed to take a photo though ;)

And love this line: "My morals are like the Loch Ness Monster, James: sightings have been reported, but there's no photographic evidence." ;D

I'm in love with them. Makes writing so much easier if you have your "muses" sitting on your desk!
