Scotland tour 2016

I can also confirm that the Electric Brae doesn't work with marbles either
I remember my Dad stopping the car in the middle of the road back in the 70's
while I got out and rolled some marbles up/down the road

If the Electric Brae DID work you might have lost your marbles..... ....mind you it would be the perfect qualification to be a Bongo owner.....

Ok I'll get my anorak.....

I can't recommend the Outer Hebrides enough, you've seen our trip reports from there. I don't think they're as tolerant on wild-camping as when we went, especially Barra but still very much worth the effort. If you do go, don't be tempted to skip Barra, it's one of the best

Definitely, looked superb in your posts.

Oh boring!

you nearly got me going . Thing is as the views spectacularly cone into view they all deserve a gloat and a pic but when presented in the cold light of day they get repetitive!

So you came up from Chippenham. It must be full of wandering Scotsmen now, my nephew a McLeod lives there now. Me I did the reverse, being a MacKay and born in Liverpool I retired to Scotland after climbing all the Munros.

If you come up the east coast via Carter Bar next time join the gang and pop in for a cuppa.

small world! Thanks for the east coast invite. I had some 1982 photos when I camped at Glencoe with a climbing club, my only previous visit to the area. They give a very different view of the same land (by a few thousand feet!) but I could do a then-and-now of the camp site and of Glen Nevis.


My PC web browser (chrome) went very s!ow as I built up posts with a large number of photo links. Don't know if others have found the same. I found it quicker to build up the posts in notepad, manually inserting the photobucket links in between [img]...[/img] tags. Then I copy-pasted the whole text into the forum post editor and used preview to make sure I had got it right.
