Tetanus[edit]

I do not think that the disease "tetanus infantum" was brought in by boat, it was the local midwife's custom of annointing the cut umbilical cord with contaminated fulmar oil that caused this . I can give references and expand on this if needed ?

(A mention of the exile of the Lady Grange to this island would not come amiss.) oops.. it's in the main article.... sorry! 86.27.177.218 23:09, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article was supposed to be calved off the main one, but hasn't experienced the expansion it perhaps should have. --MacRusgail 18:11, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Puff Inn[edit]

I am the current barman of the Puff Inn on St Kilda and the article is incorrect in that the Puff Inn is not, and never has been, a licensed bar. It falls under different rules for MOD messing facilities. When they stopped allowing day-trippers to use the bar, they did release a statement which can be read here - http://www.kilda.org.uk/puffinnstatement.htm#.U30tbPldW_Q

I'm not sure of decent wording to update this though?

I'd also like to see it mentioned that it was Sunday Mail's pub of the month in July 1976! Samuelrichardscott (talk) 22:50, 21 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

From the statement: "...it was vital that procedures were tightened up to ensure the St Kilda site is managed in accordance with standard MOD practice". Vital? Really? Sounds a bit jobsworth to me.45ossington (talk) 08:06, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
