    Wonderful episode, Iain. 🥰🥰Your videos always leave me with a longing to follow in your footsteps. 😔 I'm particularly happy that you have a drone, and can get the panoramic shots from above. Finding that big arrow was a treat. 😮😁 I would love to be able to buy and restore a castle to live in. 😲 That's obviously a pipe dream, eh? 😂 Considering what's happened to real estate values around the world, I consider myself fortunate to have an affordable roof over my head! 😮😬😮‍💨 Big hugs to you-all. 🤗 See you next time. 😍🤩😘👍👍👌👋

    Glad you folks had a nice clear day for filming. Enjoyed all the interesting places visited and shared. That is some beach, cold water and the waves looked fairly decent. Nice charity shops too. Hope you seriously considered buying the very cool vintage radio!

    I'm going to be pedantic and say that the Mull of Kintyre is just the bottom west corner of the Kintyre Peninsula. It's a long and winding road down to a lighthouse, from where you can see Northern Ireland, a few miles across the sea. Paul McCartney and Wings filmed the video for Mull of Kintyre at Saddell Bay, on the east coast of the peninsula, a few miles north of Campeltown. It's a lovely place for a walk if you are down that way again, with lots of Viking heritage and more ancient graveslabs at Saddell Abbey.

      @scotlandonashoestring  7 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hahahaha. I was hoping no one would notice that :) I worked a lot up the top end a lot of years ago and it took all my brainpower not to keep calling it the Knapdale peninsula. We ran out of time this trip to make it all the way, definitely be going back.

    I love that Bets wears dresses while exploring in Scotland, unlike the US women who seem obsessed with jeans. Dresses - YAY. I love to wear them too, even in the US. Also, DeNiro's ears are adorable.

    What a very beautiful video! Very wonderful work, showing us terrific castles and harbors. On the midges, you were echoing a quote from the Lord of the rings - What do they eat when they can’t get hobbit? You, I guess. Take care and stay uneaten. I will certainly go over and enjoy Places for the Past as well.
