    It is in need of modernisation Andy, but the staff coudnt do enough for us and the breakfasts were good,plus it was by far the cheapest in town,even cheaper than the B&B.s. ;)

    Ah so they cut up your food for you, that's very good of them. I take it they wiped up your dribbles too. :p:D:D

    Edit: I bet they didn't untie your knotted boot laces for you did they ???

    Another photo of Strathpeffer,it has lots of nice victorian buildings, In the Victorian era Strathpeffer was popular as a spa resort, owing to the discovery of sulphurous springs in the 18th century.

    Here's a couple of photos from the Saturday when i went down to meet Lou in Arrochar (he stayed overnight at mines so we could both set of to meet James together) we stopped off at Lochearnhead for a coffee and took a photo of the loch
    20210501_190016.jpg
    About half an hour later the blue skys had dissapeared,i took my Rocket down to meet Lou as i knew it would be jealous of me taking the GS away for 5 days, we swapped bikes at Arrocher and rode them to Tyndrum via Inveraray which is about 50 miles of brilliant roads,that left us about 75 miles of more brilliant roads back to my house :)
