    Love Oor Wullie... and the Broons! The Cullen Aire is putting it's prices up though; the ten quid will only be for Dec-Jan, then £12 for the spring and autumn, back to the £15 for July-Aug. Still pretty good value... though the fly parkers by the sail school making use of the water and disposal at no cost to them does take the shine off a bit! I must try and visit Bits and Bobs the next time I'm up that way! Well done on that walk, Mike and Kiera. YAM xx

When I was younger and fitter I used to enjoy those sort of trails and we had plenty of them round here. They started you off with a finger post and distance to wherever but that was ften all you got and it six and two threes as to whether you actually found what you were looking for because as I'm sure you know a country mile is a variable thing.🤔🙄 I'm sure it made your Cola taste all the sweeter at the finish though.
