Dear reader..

What Mr Wheeler is omitting to mention is that he had spent some while hiding all the good stuff PRIOR to my arrival at Wheeler Towers, leaving out only a bottle of some stuff so bad even Shackleton dumped it.....a stash being subsequently found on Bear Island in the south Atlantic, and exported to Yorkshire where they will drink anything. Moreover, the bottle presented to me had about an inch left in it...barely enough to moisten a molar. It was my duty to rid him of the noxious poison; a task I reluctantly succeeded in.

No mention of the hungry bastard polishing off my litre bottle of Highland Park in one go in France is there....oh no.

In my defence

The bottle of Highland Park was fare game ... Mr GW left it unattended. Never known that of a Scotsperson before :blast

A lifetime of study down the pan :D

In my defence ... I never hid anything from Mr GW. I run an open house here at Micky Mansions, as many UKGSer's will attest, who have stopped off here on their travels north/south south/north what with free B&B, discounted earplugs etc.

But the bottom line was that Mr GW ate and drank me out of house and home ...everything, anything and everything :blast

The thirsty/hungry nosed fecker took good nature a step too far and kicked it in the bollox ...

I rest my case m'Lord :fiddle
 
I drove home this way last Friday:

Gravel / grit in middle of left handed corner after coming downhill from the Lecht.
After your right turn to go over the moor road there are lots of patched areas with loose gravel. This happens all the way to Glenshee.
Be careful on the ride down to Persie and have a great time at Dent.

Thanks for the heads up Iain :thumb
I rode that way not so long ago and it was pretty messy but it sounds like it could be worse now, I'll have pillion ( & all her associated 'extra clothes in case it gets cold' ) and Tamnavoulin on board so will be taking it easy.

Will swig a couple of beers for you when I get there :beer:

Mike.

were planning to divert to asda in kendal bhud to pick up 'supplies' - its only a short hop then to dent. on a recent trip from fife to skye i put a case of bottled beer in my mates top box. 4 of the 10 bottles exploded. his top box still stinks like a dive bar floor.

Thanks with the current socialist regime I wouldn't want Nicola to be too concerned on exportation of such high quantities of liquor at the unsocially acceptable costs! :D
 
I am now going in the Landcruiser - long story. But if anyone wants supplies picked up let me know
 
Heading down mid morning tm via the A7, a decent coffee and grub at Pelosi's in Langholm, then Northumbria national park, Hartside and the A6. Looks like it could be a cracking day for it.
