Cheers Eddie, love your trips, and your wisdom & dry humour. This is what life should be like. Appreciate the good times & be thankful. Keep them coming!
Cheers Ed, I enjoyed your walk in the mountains. A solitude is like medicine for the soul. Thanks for sharing your passion and your joy. Lynn in Naples. FL 😎
You make me laugh out loud at times Eddy, you really can be a funny guy in a great way, a natural way. Coming to an understanding with a big spider or feeling responsible for getting a greenfly to lose it's way home is my kind of humour, and also my way of thinking. Another really good verbal wee vid from yourself. I hope you continue to entertain in your unique way mate. All the best, Ronnie.
Aw Ed/Bugsy 😂 what a lovely start to my day. Wonderful stories, beautiful views....and a reminder to just stop and take in our surroundings. Thank you so much for taking me along with you
Ahhh.....another enjoyable outing Ed. I like your relaxed manner. You take your time and have gentle conversation with us. The rolling hills were beautiful and even though you almost got bogged, you had a chuckle about it. I got the vibes as you sat on that wee seat drinking that beer. I was with you every sip of the way. Keep the videos coming Ed!
Another excellent video thanks Ed. The weather looked fantastic and the views were stunning. I'm glad you had time to relax on the bench seat and enjoy a pint. You deserved it.
A great video Ed, what amazing views and somewhere i definitely want to visit. Have had to go to hospital as found out ive appendicitis, this video has been a great post surgery watch! cheers again 😊
Well done Ed a cracking video with stunning views it’s a great place to explore up there and the train journey up alone is very special and a great way to finish off with a beer down at the brilliant station house must get back David 👍
Some great views there. I agree about enjoying the view rather than bagging another Munro. I must try that beer if I can find some. It looked great in the sunlight.👍
Thanks for this video Ed , just what’s needed on a Tuesday night. Stunning scenery & a wee saunter up a hill. You’re right about just enjoying where you are if it’s got a nice view 👍🏼
Way up there, in the middle of nowhere, is sometimes a great place to be, eh Ed? There is beauty even in the most remote and open places, especially in Scotland. All the best from Canada! - 3rd gen CDN here, bloodlines from the glorious old country you call home.... My 'happy place.' Slàinte Mhath!
Hi Ed, really enjoyed your trip back to Currour and the scenery was outstanding … loved your story about the green flys journey and the angry spider too😂😂. Just back from Altnaharra and weather was sunny and took loads of photos. Scotland is truly fantastic 🏴
Very good , enjoyed the walk ,view & your company . Ps please watch for ticks ! I was bitten walking in Applecross , ticks are fond of me , wee buggers ! Look forward to your next adventure. Toni
Beautiful scenery and the chuckles I needed. Strange about spiders I don't like them particularly but have always protected them, I will need to watch out for greenflies now I'm getting older. The arancini would be less dry warmed through and although I've not tried those M&S one's the real thing in Sicily are much larger and to die for. In Italian ci is normally pronounced ch so thay are Aran-chini. All the best!
Hey you, great peaceful video, thank you and I think the greenfly like you because of the colour, but how you avoid the midges is beyond me, anyway keep up the great work and I will look for you on the road.🤠
If you was there in the 70s you would see sheep but Christ not one in site yet there taking all the way from new Zealand unbelievable nothing better than good Old Scottish lamb from these hills
Went for the first time this summer (😆) and loved it . Will definitely go back next summer for a walk round the circle loop then a libration at the end in the pub .
Hi Ed, you're the man who's never without map, surely the map would have told you where Ben Nevis was. As for going halfway up a hill, I've done that a couple of times, I don't feel the need to get to the top.
Yes, that's a point. It's such a higgledy-piggledy mass of mountains that it's hard to know what's what. I did have a compass in my rucksack and, just as you say, that with the map should have helped. I strongly suspect the footage after my wondering is in fact of Ben Nevis.
When I was there, the English female train guard came on the blower and announced 'We are approaching 'Cor-our', because as she said, many people get that wrong' and I think that may be the correct pronounciation. Who am I to argue. If you really like the wilderness, it doesn't get better than cor-our. It has two claims to fame. #1 Highest railway station in the UK, and #2 The Caledonian Sleeper stops there. Exactly why, I don't have a scooby-doo'.
Culzean, Dalziel, Menzies and various others all have the letter "Z" for consistent, factual, historically recorded reasons. Scots orthography used to have a letter which is not in modern standard English - Yogh or Ȝ . When printing was first introduced this letter was not available so early typesetters in Scotland used the letter Z instead. Hence why it appears in various words words, names and places in Scotland. It is a totally different letter to "Z" and this is why it is not pronounced as such..
Rather like the Old English "thorn" simplified as ye, as in Ye Olde Shoppe, and pronounced the or thee. It still doesn't explain how Milngavie is pronounced Mil-guy.
Ed, hi there... The use of Z in some words are a legacy of words that came from other languages or from letters that were in the English language but are no longer in the modern alphabet. I'm no expert, but I believe how these are pronounced are close to, or the same as they were in the source language or what the now missing letter sounded like.
Oh I knew somebody would pipe up about Dalziel. The silent Z is a Scottish phenomenon, in the earliest Scottish annuls it's recorded as a number 3, hence has no definitive pronunciation. But if Boab fae Motherwell or whatever says it's Dalziel, it's Dalziel.
Cheers Paul. You'd think folk would see other comments pointing out the pronunciation error. But no, I had what seemed like everyone in Motherwell, and their auntie, and everyone who used to stay in Motherwell, put me right. It's hardly the most important aspect of the video.
A signalman at Corrour. Now that would have been a job. Shades of the Steptoe and Son episode where Albert Steptoe (Wilfred Brambell) is asked what his regular job is at the unemployment office. "Coronation Programme Seller", he replies.

Very enjoyable episode as usual ed.thanks from Oz. I agree z demands to be sounded. Best wishes.
Thanks Thomas. 👍
Aw Ed/Bugsy 😂 what a lovely start to my day. Wonderful stories, beautiful views....and a reminder to just stop and take in our surroundings. Thank you so much for taking me along with you
Thanks Pat. Can't beat a good seat.
@@EdExploresScotland aye a rock with a view or a sheltered place to sit and ponder over a good beer...couldn't be better.
Great video Ed. Enjoyed that.

Cheers John. It was just a lovely seat.
Stunning views, another great video love the spider story and your thoughts.
Many thanks!
10/10 🌟 your m&s line was hilarious & true. 😅
Thank you.
Thanks
Many thanks. Hard to beat a good seat.
Another excellent video thanks Ed.
The weather looked fantastic and the views were stunning. I'm glad you had time to relax on the bench seat and enjoy a pint. You deserved it.
I'd quite happily get the train to Corrour and just spend the whole day on that seat at the station.
Sounds like a special place.
A great video Ed, what amazing views and somewhere i definitely want to visit.
Have had to go to hospital as found out ive appendicitis, this video has been a great post surgery watch! cheers again 😊
Thank you. Recover soon.
Well done Ed a cracking video with stunning views it’s a great place to explore up there and the train journey up alone is very special and a great way to finish off with a beer down at the brilliant station house must get back David 👍
Cheers David. It's a cracking area, and one of few areas in the country where there is not a far-off drone of vehicles.
Some great views there. I agree about enjoying the view rather than bagging another Munro. I must try that beer if I can find some. It looked great in the sunlight.👍
A beer and a good seat. Heaven.
Great video and views as always Eddie 😎
Thanks David.
Thanks Ed ... very calming as usual ... always love the pints at the end ... Peter
Cheers Peter.
Good to see you went back to Corrour and got a great day for it too. Nice shot of Ben Nevis at around 10:58 . Cheers .
Thanks David. Yeh, I kinda reckoned that was Ben Nevis.
Absolutely wonderful video, Ed. Really enjoyed as ever, so thank you. All the best.
Thank you.
Thanks for this video Ed , just what’s needed on a Tuesday night.
Stunning scenery & a wee saunter up a hill. You’re right about just enjoying where you are if it’s got a nice view 👍🏼

Hi Margaret. I've never been to Altnaharra. I'll need to extend my horizons.
Another great video, just as i was wondering where you were going to post from next. Loved it
Thank you.
If only there was a Lidl at the top of that hill!
Another great video Ed spectacular surroundings passed through on the train from fort william absolutely stunning
Thanks Robert. One day I'll need to take the train all the way to Mallaig, a place I've never been.
Great!
Very enjoyable Ed... or should I say BugZy 🙂 Hope you got big ZZZds when you got hame. Keep up the great work. Donald
Thanks Donald.
Good to see you. Your looking well. Ta for the video ❤
Thank you! 🤗
Thanks again Ed
Thanks Roger.
Very good , enjoyed the walk ,view & your company . Ps please watch for ticks ! I was bitten walking in Applecross , ticks are fond of me , wee buggers ! Look forward to your next adventure. Toni
Hi Toni. Yes, ticks can be an issue. Always best to check yourself over when out and about in the great outdoors. Take care.
Beautiful scenery and the chuckles I needed. Strange about spiders I don't like them particularly but have always protected them, I will need to watch out for greenflies now I'm getting older. The arancini would be less dry warmed through and although I've not tried those M&S one's the real thing in Sicily are much larger and to die for. In Italian ci is normally pronounced ch so thay are Aran-chini. All the best!
Thanks Michael. I strongly suspect spiders are more intelligent than we could ever imagine.
Hey you, great peaceful video, thank you and I think the greenfly like you because of the colour, but how you avoid the midges is beyond me, anyway keep up the great work and I will look for you on the road.🤠
Cheers Edward. I've been midge-free this year.
If you was there in the 70s you would see sheep but Christ not one in site
yet there taking all the way from new Zealand unbelievable nothing better than good Old Scottish lamb from these hills
Back in our time Z was for Zorro.
I was laughing out loud at your story about the greenfly. Maybe because you wear green / outdoor clothing, it felt at home there. Beautiful views Ed.
Cheers Eilean. I am the Greenfly Whisperer!
Went for the first time this summer (😆) and loved it . Will definitely go back next summer for a walk round the circle loop then a libration at the end in the pub .

Yes, i thought it was weird. I went to school near Motherwell, Dalziel is silent z, also a surname, silent Z. Its always boggy up there.
Great..views and a good rest, but 3.6 percent you must have paid 6 or 7 quid,
but a semi local brewery needs support.

I was glad of the low strength. Last thing you need when puggled and dehydrated is strong beer.
@@EdExploresScotland Yes I had that on my mind.

Menzies is now WH Smith! Cor oor will never be cou..r our
Would rather ignore the Russian Z

I'll see myself out.
