Latest Update - Tuesday

Sorry about last night folks! Couldn't get anything to allow an update. Any how, yesterday was torture!! Managed up over Conic hill fine but streach from Ballmaha to Rowardennan was a right ordeal for Gill & Margo. Almost burst into tears twice!! Made it though and Rowardennan hotel was lovely. Got under way again this morning (last night was thinking of getting a foosin taxi!!) Gills knee is giving her jip and both lassies have blisters but we arrived at the Drovers after making good time. Sitting at bar now playing percussion for the resident band! Will be in our kips soon though. The Kerrs are in "The Hanted Room' dont think we will have trouble keeping though, shattered. Plan to set off early to Tydrum tomorrow. Be back in touch when we arrive. P. S sorry about lack of pics but will resolve issue soon I hope. Ta for all the comments, helping loads folks cx

  1. Well done guys, well proud of u. Enjoy the Drovers and weather looking great ahead. If Gill needs a zimmer to complete let me know, I'm only a taxi away. Next stop the 'Drum.

  3. There was a young girl called Gill
    Planned a week to walk round a hill
    She was so foo of Sloe
    She buggered her toe
    But Rob Roy he gave her a thrill

  4. Margo and Gill crawled up the hill to fetch a bucket of Sloe
    Gill fell down and hurt her crown and buggered her little toe
    Up Gill got and to the Drum did trot in a tour bus that was in a hurry
    And she currently sits in her vest and her mits with a local vindaloo curry
