Columba and the Loch Ness Monster

I'm delighted to announce the arrival of Columba Benedict Shaw on 19th August. For his Christening I made a cake featuring St Columba admonishing the Loch Ness Monster - the first literary reference to the Loch Ness Monster is to be found in St Columba's hagiography, written by Adomnan of Iona in the seventh century.
