    though so, one might accuse her of fad-jumping ;)

    Nice picture of her in period clothing on a traditional bicycle with hub gears and modern dynamo and German lights.

    Can some kindly Scots person spell phonetically how I should pronounce Eilidh's first name please?

    Assume it rhymes with ceilidh so therefore sounds the same as the Marillion song Kayleigh. I've heard of people saying eelee rather than aylee or doing something somewhere in between, though they were probably bet-hedging trying not to offend.
    Ukulele is properly pronounced ookoolaylay so doesn't strictly rhyme.

    CAUTION: advice on pronunciation of Scottish things given by non-Scottish people should first be checked with a qualified Scottish pronunciation authority
