Not heard of those Archie, but I've been to Ardnamurchan Point, the most Westerly point in Scotland. There's a lighthouse there with a huge old fog horn outside. Saw Minkey Whales there.
Posted a few more snaps on FaceBook today but can't post them here from my phone. I didn't realise how much I needed a break. Only 3 days but it's been great. Heading home tomorrow.

I can't believe what you have packed in over such a short period, let alone getting there and back!

Drove up the side of Loch Ness yesterday, looped around the top at Inverness, then back down the other side, past the site of the Battle of Colloden.
This morning I was accompanied out of the Highlands by the Jacobite steam train, running right alongside the road through Glen Orchy. Its' Summer season ended yesterday so it must be heading wherever steam trains migrate to for the Winter. I caught up with it at the tiny little station at Upper Tyndrum. No one there but the driver, the fireman, the guard & me. Steam mixing with Highland mist. Magical.
A couple of hours ago I was enjoying a leisurely lunch, sitting outside the Squid & Whale in old Glasgow city in glorious sunshine. Now I'm grabbing a quick drink at the restaraunt of the Clans -McDonalds, at a service station near Kendal in the Lake District. Home by late evening.
Could someone copy a few photos from my FaceBook page & post them here please.
