Callendar WAS nice... funny thing...

If you watched the BBC while you were over there, you may have seen a show called "Bad Lads Army" (they put 15 to 18 years old bad kids in Boot Camp). I saw a re-run of the first episode where a kid quits on the first day.

While looking for coffee in Calendar, we went into a pastry / coffee shop. I kind of stared at the kid behind the counter for a minute then finally asked, "Did you ever see a show called Bad Lads?" His friend chimed in IMMEDIATELY and said "YEAH, he was ON IT and got kicked off the first day, the pisser!" Needless to say, the kid was very embarrassed for the rest of our time in the coffee shop.

As for the frost/snow... I was surprised how THICK the frost on the grass was. Kelly and I got in a mini argument about it. She thought it was snow and I said it was thick frost.

Rocky, I was MUCH happier driving in Scotland than England, fewer cars, fewer people!

My only problem was driving without being distracted by the amazing scenery.

Glad you made good use of your time, that trade show sounded good.

Kilted in Scotland I'm a tourist
Kilted in Austalia I'm weird...

who cares?

Mike, nice photo, brings back lovely memories of one of the most beautiful parts of Scotland, except we didn't see the snow.

I could get real about living there too, I am daily tempted and think about going.
