Everyone’s heard of the Loch Ness Monster. Photographs tv programmes and films have been shot. Novels, factual books and countless articles have all been written about her or him. Millions of fluffy toys, fridge magnets, mugs and other souvenirs have been manufactured over the years. Does it really matter whether Nessie exists or not?
Not really.
As a device to draw tourists, it does need the odd “sighting” now and then to keep the interest going. And the interest must be lucrative since there are two exhibition centres on the edges of the loch.
