    Hope you enjoyed this week's adventures gang! It is so good to be back in Ellie and we cannot wait for this years trips 😁 It has been brought to our attention that the parking spot at Feshiebridge is actually NOT an overnight spot as it is a non-overnight Forestry Commission site. We did not see signage upon arrival as it was dark, however, we recommend that you always double check an overnight spot when you arrive 😌

    Welcome back, love following your adventures in Ellie, congratulations on your engagement 💍! We’re planning to move from bricks and mortar to fulltime vanlife this year, we’ve camped all our married life some 37 years and have always preferred it to living in a house so can’t wait. We live right down on the south coast near Portsmouth and have yet to visit Scotland so plan to do the NC500 very soon, we’ll be purchasing your book nearer the time. Loved that little park up by the river, so peaceful, made us think Scotland off season would be a good idea.

    I know I'm not actually there lol but I still want to say "Welcome back" ! Ellie has missed you. So much so that her heater was playing up . hehe really though glad it's sorted. I assume nothing was growing in the fridge this time😅 Awesome for the book news guys! Big cheers on that!! Also hope Gemma is feeling lots better. And may I say once again, congratulations on that other little bit of news from last week!

    Oh it is good to see you back with Ellie and traversing this Bonny Land! Much as the tropics have to offer, there is something a wee bit special about one's root place, heh na? Congrats on the books and you are surely going from strength to strength... YAM xx

    Hey you two! First of all, congratulations on your engagement! We watched your video reminiscing about our trip to Scotland back in November. Happy to see MacGregor's pub on your must visit places in Inverness as we stumbled across it while looking for Leakey's Bookstore. Great little pub with a great vibe.

    • @highlands2hammocks
      @highlands2hammocks  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Such a cosy pub! Love the live music days and also Bruce (the owner) is a lovely guy ☺️

    I'm only halfway through the video, where you're discussing your book and it reminded me a frequent complaint I've been seeing online lately for the Isle of Skye - what is your take on the condition of the roads? I've seen many complaints about the size and frequency of pot holes, how much of a hazard they are (especially after dark). Many people wonder how police/fire/medical get around safely, let alone the rest of the population. Thanks, keep up the great work - and congratulations!

    • @highlands2hammocks
      @highlands2hammocks  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The roads are a struggle all across the country at the moment, however, the highlands are continually working to improve them ☺️ the problem is the paradox between tourism and infrastructure - one can’t exist without the other. At the moment as tourism is increasing, the infrastructure is starting to catch up and soon it won’t be an issue ☺️

    Those heaters will blow out if wind is in wrong direction you shouldn't need to keep pressing the igniter like you do turn gas knob to number 2 setting and hold it down and press igniter gently once and 2 seconds later release gas button and away it goes

    • @highlands2hammocks
      @highlands2hammocks  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah that’s right! Now we have a new igniter is does it on the first try ☺️
