I'm on holiday!

[Leon]

Went to Dean Castle at Kilmarnock today, which was a nice day out, mainly as it's completely free!  Bit of an 'urban farm' for the kids as well.  Next up on the list is hopefully gonna be Culzean Castle, which has one of the largest armouries in Europe I think?   

The weather's all over the place, from burning sun to absolute monsoon within minutes... very odd.

Least the Monsoon keeps the midges down.

Nah Ian...
The little b*stards just put their little umbrellas up....Go and hide...and then come out with a vengeance, once the rain's cleared.
"Nurse !......More Piriton !"

I loathe them !
Cheers - Phil.

Is Leon back yet? Who let him go? Nik ... we told you to keep the doors closed!

Ah, but I did, Major...forgot to lock the bally things though...

[Leon]

I'm back in my cage now, the weather in Scotland scared me away...!  My tally for the week was:

Red squirrels - 0
Red deer - 0
Buzzards - 0.5 (it was too far away for confirmation)
Otters - 0
Golden Eagles - 0

Castles - 14
Golf courses - 18

You should have stopped by in Edinburgh my friend..I am a bit..well....disappointed shall we say?

No more   for you Leon

Or come to sunny Dundee, regular visitors to the park opposite my place are :

Squirrels - squintillions of the little buggers
Foxes - usually 3 or 4 of them lurking in the bushes
Red Deer - hardly a week goes by without at least 1 of them turning up
Drunken sub 18s - as many as the squirrels, but usually more seen at the weekends

Never get any eagles but have seen a couple of UFOs.

Wouldn't those be Pumas flying off to the oil rigs?

You've been looking in my freezer again haven't you Ian ?
Mmmmm (yum yum yum)....Damn tasty when you find them as roadkill....Makes a change from Puma and Lynx though.
Cheers - Phil.

We were on the other side of the country I'm afraid, although we'll be at the Premier Inn in Dundee for the Skelp show soon enough.  I was directed into the nightmare of Glasgow's city centre road system by our rather helpful SatNav on one day, which was fun...

Had the same problem with Leeds last week. You have to remember that all road-signs are designed for people who know where they're going. 

[Leon]

It's one-way systems and cities with multiple lane streets which get me, how am I supposed to know which lane I need when there's no signs to tell me?  And then trying to change lanes at the last minute, with the in-laws behind us in convoy...

Good way to loose them...just saying

The answer is to drive a battered Land Rover with bull-bars back and front. You can drive in whatever lane you like then.
