"A bid farewell.."

To you all till sunday,

Im going to Bonny Bonny Scotland for a week with my family, nan and gramps and my aunt uncle and cousins..

The Mizen gang hit scotland (my dodgy last name)

Anyway,

Any people who have been to Scotland/ live up there could you tell me a few pretty hotspots and tips and pointers for my stay?

purrrty please?

I've already been told bout the midges (the irritating flies not swarms of dwarfs)

Anyway, Play nice I love you all...

*hugs*

...advice?

Those two posts in succession made me laugh uncontrollably for some reason.

Ignoring the obvious fact that it is dark.

What can you see from your window?

Heh, I don't think I'm quite ready to put that on a chat forum. :-D

I take it you live somewhere around there then?

Which you may mistake for the Lebanon...

Go to one of the many Loch Ness visitors centres...apparently one is not enough...

One other thing, the Scots have totally prostituted their heritage for toursits, everywhere has CDs of bagpipes playing, postcards, fluffy loch ness monsters, tartan clothing, funny hats etc, and tons of the laybys. no matter how remote, have a guy dressed in traditional clothing playing bag pipes, and some even sell CD's from a suitcase they have with them. On holiday we counted at least 30 people doing this. Gretna Green is more like Gretna Shopping Mall...

Its not his real name obviously. But to many people can't say it that he calls himself Flambo, and has done for nearly 25 years now.

Just outside of it.

Jordanhill/Knightswood.

I don't know quite what I'm in. Somewhere in the middle.
