Просмотров 3,6 тыс.4 месяца назад
When we went for my morning walk, we noticed a lot of rubbish in the harbour at Wardie Bay. And following the inspiration of another Australian RUclipsr, Beau Miles, we thought that we should take this opportunity to clean up Wardie Bay. The things you find when you do a beach clean-up in Scotland are interesting.

Our last minute Highlands adventure

It was a great plan. Let's kayak Loch Lomond (in the winter). What could go wrong for these Aussies who are still getting to know the Scottish weather? While things did not go as well as we hoped, we still had a great time judging a photography competition and visiting Urquhart Castle.

BTW, the weird thing in the kitchen at around ruclips.net/video/Ii_2sDHOv68/видео.htmlsi=SB5gp9qbIphd7k-J&t=266 was a well-populated & very aged strip of flypaper.

    Dundee is my home city although I haven't lived since I was 16. There is so much history as you would expect from any city. Dundee's people have been responsible for many of the worlds innovations and large companies across the globe, from the Gaming to the car industry (a Dundee person helped form the car company Dodge) as well as the three 'J', Jute Jam and Journalism to name a few.

Also good motivation You will be amazed how soon before you see a real difference and you can extend your collection area

We swam in pools just like is there now. But you used to be able to drive out there to a car park. They even had a circus with a large tent out there. There were also two diving boards in the water at Bulcock Beach. We had a ton of fun jumping off them. I can't wait to go back there in Mar 24 to check it all out. Thanks for the video.
