Well, we are up for one last breakfast before heading back to the isles. Two ferries to go and back on Stronsay by 6pm tonight. Will be good to be back home with some wonderful memories of a great trip and new friends.

Hi Bernard, I must have done something wrong just getting the dreaded 404 page not found message.

Can you load them for me?

It's almost right, some character code substitutions there and the imgpop bit is missing from the start.

That is a terrific picture- well done

Good luck today on the final bit, Dianne- although after some of the other 'challenges' of the last few days, the final section for you should be a piece of cake!

I will not however relax, until you a safely home- so do please post when you get back.

620 miles all on for me!

(Still got my head in my hands, Bern..!)

Yahoo!

I've got it to work- I think...

Here is the Skye Bridge footage..

Excellent! Really like how the wheels look from that angle when in motion.
The first 7 seconds of audio are disturbing and amusing in equal measure.

Edit here, a misunderstanding on my part has not attributed generosity also to Lego who also contributed largely toward our fizzy celebrations

Oh yeah- cheers for that, Lego..-a lovely gesture- thanks..

NEVER MIND the audio Barney! I did have to run it!

In this case its the visuals that are important!!

It's the Loch Ness monster - escaped

Great clip!

Jim, the footage of the Skye bridge & the Coops was just the icing on the cake. Fantastic, memorable & just sheer Coop fondness...

Quite selfishly I'm first & waving, you just don't get to see yourself posing in your Coop, especially so with the lovely backdrop. If I was a woman, I'd kiss you.....

I should be thanking everyone individually, but I have thank Simon for being my night time buddy, it was great to share a few stories together. Nothing going on here move along.....

Loved Barneys patter & there were a few moments when he kept me on the right path... Genuinely thanks for that Barney.

Lego & I bonded very well I thought, big man with a big heart, a lovely family which was an honour to meet.

Everyone was lovely. I'm running out of words so I'll stop for now.

Holy shoot, I never realised how much of an old git I look like.....

So glad you qualified that Jim

Your coop is a shifter certainly and you certainly didn't wear your brake lights out

Great you managed to put up with all us southerners and sassenachs!

Being a man doesn't exactly stop you Jimboy.
Aye the crack was good all round. Apart from the stone chip in my windscreen I wouldn't change a single thing about our road trip.
Let's see some more photos!!!

Home at last, first thing was to watch the Skye bridge footage. Headless man, now Darth Vader. Great footage.

Mileage total 675 so about same as Jim just two days longer!!! You've got to love those ferry timetables.

Well done Dianne-

That is great news.

Good driving -and thanks for making it out...

Well done Dianne. That's a fair few miles. Seems like a dream now eh? My batteries are well charged now.....

Doing my best to thrash through a huge pile of GoPro footage which I'll put on YouTube and provide a link, which as far as I know can just be a private link and not open to public viewing.

Yeah- probably best to keep some of those heated quiz-moments away from the public...

Such a drag when some cyclists invade your coupe bridge epic.
Can`t believe everyone missed them. (sorry)

Thank-you again to all for sharing your photo`s and obvious good feeling. Great to see the cars as a group in such stunning scenery. I`m very claustrophobic, shows and towns turn me right off. At times I thought you had gone to Norway, people think Cornwall is scenic but it`s really very dull.

I came to think of your trip as...
`Seven spare wheels, but only one Trombone`
Can I come next time. My car doesn`t carry as there is so much braaass section.

Hey KBT,

Of course you can come!

The only entrance requirement is not to practice your brass instrument in the room- in case anybody has to share!

Thanks for your positive comments...

Well still knackered after our epic driving tour. Posted a few pics on the scary place (Facebook)
Not got time to post any pics or video our antiquated forum as it's Michael's Birthday on Friday and I'm still trying to sort his pressie.

Nice seeing everyone old and new faces alike. And make new friends. Got fantastic weather on Friday and Saturday. My coop was sublime in getting to unleash it's performance on fantastic empty roads accompanied by stunning scenery.

I have put on more than a few millimetres to the waistline as it was it was all a bit - Get-up, sit down to breakfast, then sit down and drive, stop to sit down for lunch, sit down again for more driving, With the odd stop to sit down for coffee/Tea, then stop to sit down for dinner then a wee sit in the bar, before starting it all again. I'll need a bit more exercise on foot next time. More later.

Needs to pass the interview process

Part of the interview process would be to have these polished up Jon

The Imperial is Staybrite finish so it shouldn`t be polished off. As for the Bach, the patina of 40 years can`t be helped.
Must be far more rare than the car, I haven`t looked but would say I couldn`t put a price on.
Car is £11,999.95 as I just found 5 pence while refitting seat. Also not for sale.

@ Mark - Many thanks for engaging with plockton Inn to challenge the alleged overbooking. Exactly as you said, I spoke to Mary and a refund is forthcoming for the 2 vacant rooms.

Well done chaps for getting to the bottom of this

That's my new favourite Royal Mail truck footage.

That is good news lads..

Great news- well done, Marko
