We have an hour before check in so checking out the cool kids at the Manchester runway viewing platform. Lots of geeks here and families having picnics. Lots of tables/benches, viewing platforms etc. It's not my thing but I can appreciate it's their thing. We'll be back tomorrow for the concorde...

Making our way back to Manchester but an over night stay in Newcastle and this is our view from the Hilton Gateshead and feeling a bit confused 🤣

Widows and Bairns memorial in Eyemouth Scotland and what a treasure this was to see Oct 14th 1881, 189 sailors died, leaving 78 widows and 182 children without a dad The names of each boat is listed on the front and the families representing that boat above the boat name Short video of me...

There was a young boy from Kirriemuir, who gave us rock and roll with bagpipes In his hometown today, yes Scotland weather is still being amazing

Considering the rental market these days, Im sure they could still get $600-$700 per week for it 🤣

Some of these castles are so hard to find. GPS was no help with finding this one and took us to two incorrect places, no signs pointing it out until you were in this spot and then you finally get a clue 🤣

For all my hate for the shower of death over bathtub yesterday it was a small metal strip at the front door that had me come a cropper and after almost a day Im thinking Ive done more to my ribs than just feeling sore and sorry for myself On the plus side, Im not dead or in hospital so just...

The other day we parked in the furthest corner away from the shops and when we returned a stupid camper was parked so close to us I couldn't get into the car. Fortunately it was Glencoe Co-op and not Westfield Parramatta so the wait was not long but there was about 18 other spots they could have...

Its not every day that you drive into the Scottish countryside and climb over a electrified fence to trespass onto someone's land but today was the day for this fat, middle-aged woman 😂. If they put this in the Historical Scotland guide book they could at least install a gate <redacted>

I found the centre of Scotland today <redacted>

I thought of you when I saw the Lead Mining museum, you would have gone with me 🤣

For Glencoe, Stalker castle and The Wee White House for pics. We also stopped at Falls of Falloch on the way and people were swimming there, if you're brave enough for the water Between Glasgow and Glencoe is the Museum of Lead Mining but Mr Denali wouldn't let me stop.... I need a better...

I was looking up the Glenfinnan rail museum yesterday but I don't know if we'll get there tomorrow Today we went to St Fillians to see Mirror Man and an unplanned side trip to Falls of Dochart in Killin and found a wonderful smokehouse with very pretty bridge and waterfall on the only road...

Tonights sunset in Glencoe

Booked accommodation in Scotland with a balcony and hot tub and it's the 8th day in a row with 25+c weather so now contemplating the loch for a dip

Today its people using speaker phone for long and loud conversations when every single other person in the room (lounge) is silent

Worse case scenario, last week when we landed there was 3 flights/pax that were affected and on the plane an announcement was made for those people and outside the gate was staff, golf carts and a board to redirect affected pax. I didnt see the outcome but it was not a sort yourself out...

Liverpool Crowne City, great location, great staff but shower of death in a very dated bathroom plus the tub plug is where toes are so constantly closing the tub plug thing and the shower screen thingy didn't have a silicon strip to hold it in place so bathroom flooded every time. Pity the...

Behind Notre Dame, in the far corner, is a concrete entrance to a small memorial to honor the (mainly Jewish) people deported during the Holocaust When we visited it wasn't signed but I found it very moving. I would visit again, only takes 20mins of your time but worth it...

Usually I investigate and book more wisely but I left trip planning quite late and the original room we booked was not available when we first arrived (early) so accepted this room without asking about the shower.
