While some small plumbing jobs can be completed yourself, it’s recommended that you use a certified plumber for bigger jobs. Installing toilets or sinks, repairing leaks, and replacing pipes are all jobs that qualified plumbers will be able to undertake.
Dunbeath
Dunbeath is a town in south-east Caithness, Scotland on the A9 road. It was the native home of Neil M. Gunn (1891-1973), author of The Silver Darlings, Highland River and so on, many of whose novels are embeded in Dunbeath and also its Strath. Dunbeath has an extremely rich archaeological landscape, the site of various Iron Age brochs and also an early medieval monastic site (see Alex Morrison's historical survey, "Dunbeath: A Cultural Landscape".) Of Dunbeath's landscape, Gunn composed: "These little straths, like the Strath of Dunbeath, have this intimate charm. In boyhood we are familiar with every square yard of it. We encompass it physically and our memories hold it. Birches, hazel trees for nutting, pools with trout and a sometimes noticeable salmon, river-flats with the wind on the bracken and disappearing bunny scuts, a wide range of wild blossom and also little bird life, the skyrocketing hawk, the unforeseen roe, the old graveyard, ideas of the people who when lived far inland in straths as well as hollows, the past and the present held in a minute of day-dream." ('My Little Bit Of Britain', 1941.). There is a community museum/landscape analysis centre at the old village school.
