I'm betting this was you... correct? About 13:15 near Ardheslaig?



About a mile before this view:

Sorry to disappoint but no, we didn't take the loop in the end and I've been in a black Europcar Meriva all week! Stunning pic as usual though!

The Arch Inn is great for food in Ullapool. The fish and chip shop just round the corner from the Seaforth is a good takeaway think it's like Del-a-ca-sea or something...fishy.

Also the Day 3 on Skye makes no sense really. If it's just a ride on a boat the missus wants get the Kyle Rhea ferry across - cracking little roads before and after it and much cheaper than from Mallaig! Although you may need to backtrack from the Skye bridge to visit Eilean Donan if I remember correctly.

I'm currently up Gairloch way. Not seen any interesting cars yet out and about. I'm in Vauxhall Mokka hire car purgatory. They make them in 1.6NA form, why I don't know - 30mpg anyone??

Thread starter here, back up for two weeks!
Overnight kip at a mate's in Hamilton and heading up to Kyle of Lochalsh shortly.

Debating on taking the A85/A828 on the way north for a change. Adds a few miles but might be quieter than the A82?

In a MK1 red Mx5, my trusty annual Highland trip motor!

I'll keep an eye out.
Not sure I'll be up in your immediate area this time Steve. Out on a wildlife conservation boat for a week then Skye / Harris and Lewis the week after coming back in to Ullapool / Gairloch then south probably through the Cairngorms.
