Don't forget pictures of you in your kilt WITH your girl---she deserves some credit and probably is the best accessory a kiltie can have with him. I am sure a friendly local would be happy to take your picture, and may want one of you and he together as well.

I'm sure I can coax her into at least one photo.

We made it to Skye and we're busy celebrating 20 years together today. Thanks for the encouragement guys, t'aint easy, but it's worth it.

You should have seen her face when she saw the Black Cuillins in the dusk last night. They don't make mountains like that in England

Another great day. We raised a glass in the legendary Sligachan Hotel last night.

I can recommend Cafe Arriba in Portree, especially for Veggies and the Blue Shed Cafe in Torrin (between Broadford and Elgol) - lovely people and the best view from a cafe table I've ever seen! See picture hopefully below, if not it's in the 'Me & My Kilt' photogallery.

It was a beautifully sunny day at Torrin, on the road to Elgol, and Bla Bheinn looked surreal.
