Quiff, meet Murphy! (Ralph's black Labrador...)

I mean how could he be scared of this?
http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._8017989_n.jpg

Might have had something to do with Ralph and KG making the dog bark on command and hence scaring poor Quiff to death lol!

Re: So then, some GMIII piccies you say?
 

So the next morning....feeling a bit dejected after being eaten alive we joined Pete and Lissa, Davenumbers and Ravingdavis on the way up to Skye. We didn't fancy getting the Corran ferry so we went the long way round, up to the Skye bridge.

http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._3327078_n.jpg

got caught on the way up though, like the waterproofs? :smt040

Re: So then, some GMIII piccies you say?
 

Reminds me how much I like Scottish roads, long time (25years) since I ventured up that far.
