Amazing bird life, in just 10 minutes I saw chaffinches, wrens, blue tits, great tits, wood pigeons, thrushes blackbirds and what I think was a blackcap. Unfortunately my bird book is on the shelf, at home...
Hope to wake early tomorrow and be on my way to Killin (pronounced with the emphasis on the second syllable - which I find almost impossible). According to my sat nav it's a three and a half hour drive from here. But I shall stop at the wonderful Tebay services in Westmoreland to stock up with goodies and again before Glasgow to re-read the motorway map in case my said sat nav leads me astray once more.
Killin is some way north of Glasgow, and is the home of the Macnabs. There is a delightful burial ground there, on a small island, where the clan chiefs are buried.
The entrance to the Macnab burial ground.
If I remember rightly, there is no signal for O2 or my 3 mobile modem at Killin. When Flossy and I reach Dingwall (which is near Inverness) on Sunday, with any luck, we'll catch up again
