Hope the weather is ok July so far has been wet i see you are based at loch ness for a week, are you based there and touring and returning to the site my opinion would be to make most of your time on the west coast it will blow your breath away i will be up that way for 2 weeks in mid Aug 2 days max on any one location as there is so much to take in enjoy your time in Gods Country

we are also leaving on Sat for three weeks touring the west coast .. lets hope the weather improves.. :RollEyes:

Skye first, then will meander up the coast as we feel the urge ...look out for a green Cabanon tent, a Honda CR-V with a Jack Russel in tow ...

just remembered, .. a friend of ours called and said it was 90deg in Glasgow :winky:

If near Inverness don't forget Brin Herb Nursary just South of Inverness. Margaret & Angus will welcome you and you can use their field for free, as we did last weekend.

Now near Fraserburgh sitting in the glorious sunshine. :sin:

Nowhere better than Scotland when the sun shines. :thumb:
