feemcg Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I think I may have mentioned that I'm fortunate to know a girl in the village of Wanlockhead (Scotland's highest village) http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/wanlockhead/wanlockhead/index.html that takes all my boys that I hatch. Tonight I went with my OH to drop off a CD (1st waltz suggestions for their wedding) to a couple in the village of Leadhills (Scotland's 2nd highest village!) and across the road I spotted a red eglu in a garden (gobsmacked, I always seem to think no-one else on earth owns an eglu or cube except me) Could this be the highest in Scotland? (don't think its a forum member, you need to wait about a week for dial-up up there ). http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/leadhills/leadhills/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feemcg Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 It is very pretty in Winter. Our school had an outdoor centre in Wanlockhead when I was young and we had many a weekend, cuddled round a big log fire telling ghost stories and sneaking back to our dorms for the alcohol we had hidden . OH's house is a few miles 'down the hill' and I can't wait to move there soon - either to his house if we can get a bit of land nearby or buy another one with land. I have no patience - I want to move NOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
