Glencoe massacre LIVE FEED

walked right round harbour top.. theres a high footpath- real nice.. went on the "lump" local beauty spot- it really really is worth a visit guys.. go see for yourself. loads of rabbits up there too.. dead good..





water so blue--



Mand insisted on stepping on this- as I wouldnt let her stand on one similar at lizard point in cornwall..













oh and she still found time for her fave bondage pastime- man she loves chains that girl..

next mornin off to Loch ness- via loads of cute roads and stuff. lots of little stop offs etc..all up the west side of the loch nice roads- shame about the coaches.! then stopped to view another nice castle.. froma distance as it was £8 to get in !







as we were at he castel on loch ness.. a couple of Tornados flew over- WOW !! what a sound what a ight- .. sadly- a few days later one crashed near Loch lomond west side- I wonder if it was one of the ones we saw..



can you imagine 2 tornadoes filling the sky over this castle.. sooooooo fast couldnt get em on cam..

up to inverness for find a cycle shop and purchase me some cycling padded luycra shorts- oh waht a diff they make and only £20.. then down the east side b road of Loch ness to Fort Augusta at the bottom.. callin in at Foyers falls on the way-- this was an impromtu thing- saw the sign.. went- .

Mandy questioned if there would be any "falls" cos of the dry weather- me quoted my geography .. and off the hills. meliting snow.. water from days ago reaches here... there will be loads..











Oh my god- I cudda peed more !! good job it was free.!



but what a hike down.. in leathers- .. sooo hot .. steep steps cut in to the hillside.

mrs fit was ok.she cudda run it !!!. but this wa sme when we got back to the top..



I was pooped beyond belief..





however- a wee and some water and some tango...(my own this time) and me recovered..

cute shetland pony-



down to Fort Augusta at bottom of the Loch ness. and Mand loved it there- it was a hot hot day so we decided at 5pm to stay the night -- booked in nice hotel. lots of pubs there and the loch to look at- like big big staircase locks.. all way down the hill there- taking th eboats fromthe caledonian canal to loch ness- just sat and watched them go past and the lock open and close- and the road is closed off and becomes a swing bridge- .. its good..


















comfy cycling shorts and me on a tartan rug - what more could you want





super hotel right near locks and loch- own parking- 55 quid the 2 of us with breaky - well pleased..

so beer time..

















yet another nice long walk to stretch the back and legs- very enjoyable and to be honest nice to be off the bike by then -

just a chippy tea- nice- mand had haggis again !!

on a bap!





then we saw this car pull in- ha- ace !!










then I heard the sound of a Ducati-- about half seven 8o clock now.. and then theres Pete n lissa... and then the others- ha ace- so they had some chips with us then went on to the site..









another walk before bed and we saw maybe another possibility for my next bike.. trike- Hornet 900
