The Millers Guesthouse Bishopton

Travelled from Fife over to West of Scotland and Hamilton, just south of Glasgow.
Watched the game which Hamilton won 2-1 and really enjoyed the atmosphere. On the radio on the way home though learned that there had been fighting in the players tunnel after the game and the Police had been involved. Boys will be boys!!
Sat with the Hearts fans ... not happy! Team were poor and they can see their club is in decline!

... city and the first time that we have felt relay cold!

Porridge (with salt not sugar) for breakky.

Sunday morning was the "Barras". Markets selling all sorts of goods, trash, treasure and the like. "Come on folks, it's all cheap because it's all stolen"

Really enjoyable weekend and great to stay with a family and see what they say is "The Heart of Scottland"

... we were drinking our coffee we decided to do a quick sketch of the train station. As we were sitting there a nice older man in a kilt caught a glance of what we were doing and invited himself over. He pulled up a chair and started to explain to us that he used to teach architectural drawing classes and now is a professional artist who gives presentations on his work. He asked to take a look of each of our sketchbooks and gave ...

... Apart from that can recommend Relais FRANCESCA in Piano di Sorrento.A super small hotel with parking -important in that area!Also close to train station for Sorrento,Pompeiietc.
P.S.DON'T plan to eat outside Pompeii site-take something with you or use cafe inside.
Cheers

... phones through to the AA and books a transporter to take me back to take me back to Nottingham (East Leake).

Tow truck 1, turns up at 11:50 to take me on the first leg of the journey home from Fort William to Stirling. This takes approx 3 hours and I get dropped at Stirling service station where I am supposed to be met by the next tow truck. It takes about an hour for the next truck to turn up. Which was arranged for 14:30

... Wheel. Lunched and took at barge up the wheel to the canal and went through the tunnell to the surviving lock and then back down. The design allows for minimal energy reuired to work the system. Drove in a rather round about route to Loch Lomand. Anthony and I went up the spur of the hill above the town while Maureen and Danny went on a boat ride on the loch. We met at the pub for a beer and then drove back to ...

... and it had been sitting under the heat lamp for at least five minutes. The fries were crisp, but lacked salt. The burger was fried - more like chicken-fried steak than a burger, it was a ****** patty. Though it was out of a jar, the roasted pepper sauce was actually pretty good, and the burger was placed under the broiler for a moment to melt and brown the cheese. There were some nice assorted greens, with tomatoes, cukes ...

... Sugar Loaf and the views were fantastic. Rather concerned about the group of 50 or so school children who followed us up very noisily but were never seen or heard of again once at the top. Do they bounce? We´ve booked a bus to Parati on Saturday as we´ve promised Louise to have Friday night in Lapa where there´s lots of dancing and fun...yes Jamie, we will be home by midnight.

... well worth any extra that it costs. The hotel is not much more than a five-minute drive from the terminal so it's difficult to get any impression of the city. The hotel interior is very impressive and I am particularly struck by the lighting, which is a combination of lamps, hundreds of small spots and beautiful candles, all combining to make a magical atmosphere. After dry Tehran, I enjoy a beer or two and a light meal in the Chinese restaurant. Good, but a bit expensive for ...

... both with tobacco and slaves. America was the primary market for both exporting and importing goods. The tour ended at the church. It was beautiful. One of the stained glass window's showed Adam and Eve with out any clothes! Scandalous! Next came free time and most of us wandered around the Necropolis, a huge Cemetary that was designed after Pierre Le Chese in Paris. The monuments were very beautiful. It was ...
