Hope you lads enjoy your day .

Beautiful scenery and fantastic walks for the dogs. You can visit Iona as well which has great history. Scotland has so many beautiful areas

Got voted the 4th most beautiful island in the world .

Isle of Harris and Lewis got voted the most stunning island in Europe 2014 I think it was.

The rail journey from Glasgow to Mallaig voted the most stunning rail journey in the world.

Spoiled shame for us east coasters it's hours away .

How was your trip, Buc?

I absolutely adore the isle of Skye.  I've been a few times now, camping at Portree, Glenbrittle and Dunvegan.  I even proposed to my wife at the Fairy Pools.

Did you do the Cuillins?

My loon done the Pinnacle without a rope . My wife backed down and my Glesga mate fell hurt his leg badly and couldn't climb it either. But they had a great day have you don't that hill ?

And thanks for asking I baby say my Scottie dog.
They done a few hills so fair play to them .

The Pinnacle without a rope - that makes me sweat just thinking about it lol.

I've not done any hills in Skye despite having been there several times.  The Cuillins ridge are definitely on my bucket list though.

I remember visiting this place last time I was in Dunvegan - https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/skye/angusmacaskill/index.html Run by Danny MacAskill's father.  Was very interesting and amusing at the same time!

We saw that house on the main road to the left as we were heading home it's just off the main road .

Just read the guy that lived in it Angus Macaskill was 7ft8 he'd make my loon look small at 6ft5.

Sounds like you had a great time Buc 👍

Not so much me as I was babysitting the dog mate .

But yeah they all had a cracking week of hitting the hills .
Thank you
