In the area you have Inverness, Spean Bridge, Plockton, Eilean Donan castle and even Skye. Fort William is just down the road but I think it is a nice place to visit but I don't like staying there - long story.GrumpyRNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06774717062401988853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4941930385963521365.post-45978918274586132032012-05-22T20:57:17.006+01:002012-05-22T20:57:17.006+01:00Me too!

One of my wife's relatives placed different coloured clear paper (much like that wrapped round certain well known sweets) on top bottom and middle of the screen and called it colour TV.<br /><br />I have to say that the jubilee is now starting to annoy me. We were wanting to go to Cornwall in June but everywhere has added on at least £200 to their prices. I am not particularly anti royal but I was asked in Sainsbury's this morning if I wanted to place an order for the Jubilee and I felt myself starting to sing "Flower of Scotland" and demanding independence now.<br /><br />Oh well, it will be all over in a couple of weeks and things can get back to normal - oops, I forgot the Olympics and the hype surrounding that.GrumpyRNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06774717062401988853noreply@blogger.com
