A brilliant couple of days cycling across Scotland from Fort William to Beauly.
The Highlands really do look their best at this time of year.

Superb 3 day trip from Strathfarrar to Strathcarron.
Non-stop blue skies (it's what they all flock to Scotland for 😉)

Dragged the eldest over to Hoy for the day.
Weather wasn't quite what was forecast with near constant clag and a biting wind, so we cut the route shorter than planned.
She never complained once 😊

Brilliant weekend back in Glasgow. 25 years after our last gig together we were back for an afternoon of playing together in Jinty's.
So many faces I hadn't seen for a quarter century. Fantastic!

Best to remove them early. In older buildings they start to sag 😉

Today, in Orkney, we fought over a log through the streets of Stromness (we don't have many trees here, to be fair).
Tomorrow we'll do battle over a small leather ball in the streets and lanes of Kirkwall.
We do things differently here 😜
Have a great Hogmanay, whatever you're up to.

A brief hint of sunlight at the start of the shortest day here in Orkney.
(Sunrise 0903, sunset 1518)
Gives no sense of the severe gale force winds - now storm force and no sign of the sun.

Lovely mountain. Some of my favourite views. Dragged my wife up there ten years ago and 'almost' persuaded her to take up hill walking.

So, apparently it's #InternationalMountainDay today. Magic! These days I'm as likely to potter around 'among' mountains as on top of them. Here's one of my favourite spots from recent years.

Sitting at my desk with freezing cold feet, remembering the hottest day of the year back in 2023. Maximum hill points to anyone who can name the peak I'm on 😉

First time going onto Adobe Stock to look for footage in a long while. My goodness you definitely need to tick this option now.

Had a fabulous 3 days walking the Affric Kintail Way last weekend. What a brilliant route, with three very distinct characters.
