    Why? Does hearing about the wind speed in Rockall and Cromerty turn her on?

    Jim,

    If I get everything done on the Vara on Saturday I'm hoping to take a run through to Skye on Sunday. The Mountie has "lost" his @ to a man from the hills, so he's been a hunting and found a Tiger on Skye that needs a bit of TLC to get it to run properly.
    Weather is not looking to great for Sunday, but I've got to run up some miles on the new beast to work out fuel consumption and machine reliability, so weather is not a stopper for me.

    Just a thought

    Maybe more like she's a bit of a wimp when it comes to camping.

    I'm afraid this one will be too far for me - 600 miles there on Friday and the same back on Sunday.

    Hope you all have a great time. I'm determined to get to Cape Wrath sometime.
