Good to see you are getting to see a bit of Scotland Jamie :goodjob:

All of the castles in Scotland are only open from April-October, it would cause too much damage to floor coverings etc for them to be open over the winter months, but as you have seen, it doesn't stop you seeing the outside of them (and you are not allowed to take pics inside anyway!)

Did you get buzzed by any fast jets around Lossie/Kinloss??  :happydance:

I got snowed on today, walking to and from lunch.  It wasn't the snow that was cold, it was the arctic wind!!

I understand that when it gets below minus 5 C up there you guys wear something under your kilt - and when it reached minus 10 C - you wear trooosas

Yes.
We certainly can't accuse him of skirting the issue.  :P

But if he tries it with the wrong Scotsman, he could get himself kilt.
