    Your Kilted Chauffeur Awaits


    As some of you already know I have begun part-time driving of accessable community transport serving rural areas in the south of Scotland.

    As the organisation is called Teviot Wheels I have started off by wearing the Teviotdale tartan, though other kilts will get to have their pleats on the driving seat too.

    Carter Bar, on the English Border, Tuesday morning.
    The snowman was still standing sentry on the border when I passed again on Thursday evening though I suspect his days may be numbered, today the temperature is forecast to rise to 6c 43f which is the warmest it has been since early December, and to rise to 8 tomorrow.

    Swinnie Forest, Wednesday.
    The vehicle is a Citroen Dispatch which can carry five seated passengers plus two on wheelchairs for which it has a rear loading ramp.
    That's all for now folks.

    I think that the carrot was originally nearer the eyes before someone had their little joke!

    Great pictures Alex!

    Alex, Im glad you're up and running! At least your kilt will keep the conversation going!
    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
