We were out and about on the Mull of Kintyre this week and just managed to make it to Davaar Island, only accessible at low tide through a causeway. Unfortunately the tide was coming in so we didn’t have time to check out the CAVE PAINTING, which we’re told is quite spectacular.
We’ll just have to come back again!

Another edition of “We do the hills so you don’t have to” 😃
Ben Lui and Beinn a’Cheibh are 2 neighbouring Munros around 8 miles west of Tyndrum on the road to Oban.
Today was perfect as the weather allowed us unobstructed views all around the mountains of Scotland, it was pretty spectacular.
There is a burn at the start, so I brought wellies to cross it and avoid walking with wet boots and feet.
The first section past the burn is a very boggy slog until the start of the climb up Ben Lui is reached.
This is a relentless pathless uphill ankle-bending climb but worth it for the reward of a 360 view all around the mountains of Scotland.
A scree slope down to the Bealach took us to the perfect lunch spot to refuel before tackling the 2nd Munro, which was a much easier and quicker affair.
Back down to the Bealach we walked, then down the steep treacherous path to a more manageable slope until we reached the bog again.
All in, we managed it in 4hrs 45 min and had a fantastic time.

Corsehill Park in Ayr, once the site of an elegant Victorian house (demolished in the 1960's) is now home to mature trees and magnificent displays of Crocus. A lovely place to visit at this time of year.

Warning....angry post below!!!

What is it with some Scottish people? We've been graced with living in such a beautiful country, but we treat it like an open bin.

Joined some friends today to try to tackle the rubbish washed down the River Irvine before it reaches the Sea.

It's an impossible task.... you can pick up the cans and bottles, but for every bottle there are 10 cotton bud sticks, and for every stick, there's 50 fragments of polystyrene, and then you can multiply again for the microplastics.

But we tried and managed to fill 35 bags in a short time. Would have filled more but ran out of bags.
