        That's a Ray Davies classic isn't it?

            Usually go for a run round Loch Tummel when I'm up there although I cannot walk across the dam due to my vertigo.
            wee jaunt up Vrackie and a few ales in the Moulin and the train home used to be a perfect saturday for me (when I was fitter)

              Ah - myself at the age of 18 in Pitlochry - as it was a summer seasonal job and it was very difficult to get any accomodation - I pitched a tent and lived rent-free in Glen Faskally for a couple of months - dear me - thirty years ago.... I recall back then the Theatre was running Brechts 'The Caucasian Chalk Cilcle' ....


              BTW have you been to Quuens View - stunning place nearby - also a walk up Ben Verackie can be fun !

              Dont even know the Time
              Bit you dont mind
              Oh to be 18 again, that sounds like the life.

              Never been up the Queens View, I was planning on doing some walking but my main hiking jacket had to be taken back to the shop for repairs last week, the zip burst, I thought that they would just hand me over a new one but they said "we have to send it back to Belgium to the North Face factory" so no hiking for me.

              I really struggle with the vertigo as well and had to be walked out the Killicrankie Pass with a near panic attack last year.

                      The sun going down caused the Highlandmen to advance on us like madmen, without shoe or stocking.

                      good to see not much has changed in 300 odd years. You ever been out in Inverness?
