what is a must to visit in Scotland?

Hi Owen,
There's no question the steam train is very nostalgic,and very enjoyable, but your only doing half the trip.
I wanted to do the full 5 hours there and back.

cheers......Graham.

 

They were tough guys Tom.

I never took you as one who told porkies Graham

Regards
Hugh

 

Hi Hugh,

Absolutely true Hugh.
When we got back after 2 weeks in Scotland, I said to Liz," do you realise I never had a single drop of whisky whilst we were in Scotland ".(I'm not a big whisky drinker at any time) but I do like a tipple now and again.????
Next time we go there I shall make up for it.

cheer's .....Graham.

 

Took a day out to visit the The National Museum of Flight.(East Fortune Airfield, North Berwick)
Saw one of the greatest planes to ever grace the sky's.Remember seeing this in flight, awesome.

At this rate it might be easier to take up residency for a year - how long was your original holiday for??

TD,
good idea, looks like Scotland is the home of Harry Potter and The Highland saga. I l read all of them.

The timimg depends on the famous rocks to help me travelling in time to Sept. 1941 to watch the guys escaping from the camp to your left.. The hole in 2015 looks frightening these days, but then in the dark with search lights.

We are now all set to fly to Glasgow on 13th April, celebrate our friends 70th (WW2talk member) and go on a 9-day comprehensive Highlands Tour.
Thanks all for the help.
Stefan.

 

Ahhhhhhh the 13th April - is it a Friday ????

Also think its the start of either the Haggis nesting season or the shooting season - can never remember which

TD

 

Dont be ridiculous. If you shot a haggis there would be nothing left to eat. Special traps are set that are designed to attach to one leg. They run round in circles until they drop dead from exhaustion then you send the children to the hills to pick them up. However, you are correct in that April is nesting season and trapping is banned. (Allegedly).

 

Are you trying to say there's something wrong with such days????

Says one born on one.

 

With a .22 there's plenty left

My problems arise only on Saturday the 2nd's

TD

 

I was going to suggest the Murrayfield Rugby Stadium, but I'm not so sure now.

 

In my country, Friday and 13th is an old wifes tail. Do I believe in it? No way.
I'ii be back in late April.
Stefan.
