    Brewery again tonight, looks like the local it's still a few weeks away from being done.

    Been to Spoons a few times as an alternative, Hazy Jane in the big bottles is decent and Shipyard is a good pint but it's a dump and noisy as **** in there. £1.29 a pint of Abotts Ale is crazy £1.69 for a variety of cask beers.

    Be glad when the local opens again though.

    All good no further checks after duty free so me and my stolen booze arrived unscathed.

    We did it last October, my avatar is us going over the Arete, the Cairngorms way would be spectacular. We had planned to do the 9 Scottish 4000's this week, but b-i-l had to have an emergency op about 6/7 weeks ago, so we've rearranged it for end of March.

    I remember us speaking about it once before. That MTB cairngorms way is a 120 figure of eight loop. I watched a yootoob vid of two guys doing over 2 days and staying in a bothy.

    ****ed if I’m doing that over two days, but I might try and work one half of the loop and do it over 3 or 4 days.

    In the summer
