Friday

Left on Friday afternoon as Julie had a Mountain race up Aonach Mor near Fort William, we spent most of the day in Inverness getting stuff shopping etc.....

After we went looking for a BnB in typical Cleghorn Lampoonery style having not booked and findgin everywhere booked up as usual, we should know better, but we kept phoning and calling into BnB's, Guest Houses and Hotels. We took turn about and every now and then Jules call some from the Touristy brochure we had. We went in to some really sneaky places having banners up at the bottom of their drives claiming to have rooms for 22.50 or 27.50 only to be told when going into these places that those rooms had all gone and they only had some really expensive ones left, ha ha typical Scotland eh, a place you have to pay to have a shite! Some of these quotes made me laugh out loud, £120 for the room, someone said £85 when Jules scoffed they said "well you wont get anything any cheaper" I would rather have drove home than give in to these lying bar stewards!!!

Jules on the phone managed to find a room for the 3 of us with cooked Brekkie for £55, fine we booked it went to MacD's for some chicken and went up for the night, Aonoch Mor View BnB, it was very nice and sooooooo quiet, perfect.
