As you know, I don't generally do pics of cars... but Charlie is impressed by his new dog wheels, so wanted to show them off.

Personally, I like the last pic.

Having done 1200 miles in 3 days in snow, ice, rain, more ice, serious ice, gales, and warm sunshine - I'm writing another in the long line of 'sad git' reviews on the motor: www.SadGit.net

PS - Sorry I've been remiss on today.jpg... but liked this one: www.stevecarter.com/picaday/mar20.jpg

Er... the loch is level (enlarged from today.jpg)



The road is however, quite slanty.. (on purpose I think - to stop ice). I know 'cos I was sliding down it on Tuesday.

The march 20th pic you linked to in your first post is bloody amazing Steve!

The texture of the hill, the colours, the sharpness throughout the scene combined with the "model" train make it look totally surreal. I love it, great work!

The only lake in Scotland IIRC. The rest are lochs. They have a nice hotel there...you can eat in the large conservatory looking out over the lake to the island where they have the (long) abandoned Priory.

Stayed there once. Very pleasant.
