    Have you ever went camping in Scotland?

    Can you recommend any decent sites and activities?

    Go to Glen Afric in Cannich. One of the nicest places I've ever been.

    Aye and no.

    Camping is ****e, especially in Scotland. It rains, you get wet, you get up for a pish in the middle of the night and it's ****ing raining. It's uncomfortable and when the wind gets up the ****ing wet tent sticks to your face. By the seond night you'll just want to go home to your nice, soft bed with fluffy pillows and a warm duvet.

    Don't ****ing do it.

    Then there's the midges...

    <laugh> Pair of ****ing pansies.

    I've been camping in loads of place in Scotland. I went camping at Scotsburn in the Highlands in November one year and went swimming in the river. If you can't handle a bit of wind, rain and midges then you're not really Scottish.

    My mate did the exact same thing at Scotsburn. We met a load of ****s from Tain there and ended-up drunk playing two-man hunt. My mate decided to go near the cliff and fell about 20 feet, he had to pull himself up using a gorse bush. He staggered back to our campsite about 3 hours after the game started and we were just about to go searching for him. He was covered in cuts and scratches and all the tins of cider in his bag burst when he fell and he was reeking of it.

    There was a wee tree thing, and my mate took a runnie towards it and jumped on it, the thing snapped and he fell at least 15ft easy. <laugh>

    It was ****ing hilarious, until some **** stole the dope <grr>

    <laugh> I had a massive whitey in the middle of all the folk from Tains tents and two of them started fighting because one accused the other of eating his tin of beans and hotdogs because that's what the spew looked like.

    Me and one of my mates snaffled half their food earlier in the day. They were ****ing clueless.

    On a serious note OP, get yourself to the FAR NW - Cape Wrath area, the beaches up there are glorious. Durness, Loch Eriboll, Kyle of Tongue, Skerray. Second to none.

    Failing that Lewis / Harris is always worth a visit. Bosta beach on Lewis is breath-taking <ok> Nae **** for miles...and free wild trout fishing. That, a few tinnies and a quality scud mag .... BLISS
