The townsfolk of Drumnadrochit have done a very clever thing. They've managed to isolate the more garish parts of the local tourism industry to the northern end of town, separated from the normal side of life by a big river. Thus on one side of our hotel we have the Loch Ness Monster Visitor Centre and the Loch Ness Monster Exhibition. On the other side we have the Loch Ness Visitor Centre (complete with images of something that looks like a pidgeon without wings) and beneath the hotel in the Nessie Shop. No - I'm not making this up.
Last night's b&b (Riverbank Lodge) was so tranquil......and set on a road where the next town is 52 miles to the north west.
We have now done very nealy 900 miles with just over 140 to go.
Thank you, Alison, from the Prince's Trust for your continuing support and for phoning today.

Well done to both of you,..900 miles..blimey and with the end in relative sight your now getting hungry?...I would have hoovered up the pasties in Cornwall, set about the any Band B providing a decent steak...diverted to Melton Mowbray for some pies, and zoomed into the Venison as soon as I was over the border...with the distinct conviction that in 900 miles it was essential!!!!
ReplyDeleteHope the feet are standing up to the daily grind, no issue re tissue on the blog so all seems ok...great that the Princes Trust is such as support....must be a real boost to have the contact..so with a week to go we wish you a decent weather forecast for the remaining miles..we are looking at a Bank Holiday weekend with a chance to put our collective feet up!!
All ther best
