The feud comment was tongue in cheek .


Re route from Hull Ian hasnt posted that yet but guessing he will do scenic route in Yorkshire as its his home county although now lives in Forest of Dean and scenic across to Moffat

I thought you could have been a little more imaginative with the route. They are not going to see a lot of the jock countryside. I know it it a tight time scale but you could do it for just as cheap.

Its not set in stone Ian may have other ideas but he asked me to do a route and thats what Ive done its all non motorway takes in Largs Oban which are nice towns .Ive done most of west coast part and bit around Inveraray looks nice its the old military road so an historic road.Germans will want a bit of sight seeing as well

View from Inveraray from A83
