    Great plains and a great city on one side and big hills on the other. Can't ask for better Peter especially with a sunset like that. Loving the Meadow Pipits there. Mark

      For hillwalking Glasgow is quite lucky that way Mark it dosent take much distance from Glasgow to be out in great countryside. Last night was great i could have just sat up there all night if i could it really cheered me up a big bit. Thanks for watching Mark hope all is well mate, peter.

    Thanks for the video Peter, like others I enjoyed listening to the sky larks as well as seeing the Campsie for the first time. Lock down is not all bad, you had them to yourself and I have the best April "Costa garden" sun tan ever. Keep safe. 😎🏖️

      Costa garden ha ha! Well why not eh? The Campsies are the reason i love the hills so much. In 1981 my Dad took me and my old granny up there for a run in his old wee red Mini. I remember at 0:15 on that part of the road my wee face was pressed against the window in awe thinking i was in the Himalayas lol! My poor wee granny was less impressed in fact even more less about an hour later when i was sick all over her when the ice cream my Dad bought me came back up!!!

    Lovely. The sound of the skylarks at 5 mins reminds me of my last walk in the Campsies, just before the lockdown. We went to Dumbreck, Earl's Seat and Hart Hill. The sunset was lovely. The best sunsets are seen from the hills. I can't wait to go camping again.

    • @MUNROSnCORBETTS
      @MUNROSnCORBETTS  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The Campsies are great in my opinion so many wee hidden hills that have amazing views, Earls Seat is great one not been to Hart Hill yet but will look them out when i manage to get over to Stronend & Earls Hill etc. And you are correct you get the best sunsets from the hills wee ones or otherwise :)))

No idea what that shed is or for in fact i dont think anyone knows. First saw it in 1981 when my Dad first took me up there. I needed that walk last night and it did get the rust off the knees a big bit and it was well worth the sunset loved every minute of it :))) Thanks George hope you are well mate, peter.

I had my first free time for four months last wednesday and i went to Glen Lui via the Linn of Dee and headed up Glen Derry and it nearly done me in! Was about 16 miles in total which surprised me as i can do that distance no bother but it just goes to show how rusty i am. So its a dose of hitting my bike for a week or two then try again. Really enjoyed the feeling of being out again though missed it loads!!!
