Very nice Nick. You hit a few of my local haunts along the way hear Loch Lomond and loch long I see. Some cracking pics as well, and you REALLY lucked out with the weather!
Re: 4 days in Scotland - nick crisp - 13-05-16
It was a cracking 4 days with weather Mick. I actually got to use my mesh jacket, liners removed! :eek Bumped into FOC-U's own dick turpin in Ullapool, so might be more to come soon. I think he made a longer play of it, camping. I'd have let you know I was coming (so you could hide :lol ), but was a very last minute decision - booked the B&Bs the night before setting off, although i'd been toying with the notion for a while.
I think your patch is just about doable for me for day trips, so maybe we could go for a spin sometime?

Beautiful pictures dude. I love this little country of mine. Although, sometimes it doesn't feel so little

Thank you! Tis wonderful
And it didn't feel little to me either. Still loads left to explore yet; haven't done the far north, many of the isles (Arran is in my sights for some future time) or the Cairngorms yet!
