    Greetings from Poland.
    This is video number 35 from your catalogue. I enjoyed the vlog very much despite the mixed bag of weather.
    The suspension bridge was great but, like the viewing platform, was a bit too scary for me - I'm terrified if heights.
    I enjoyed the McClouds castle especially the dungeon. Your history lesson was very useful.
    A nice walk at the end of the video to see Skye and The Old Man of Hoy. The still shots of Keira in time with the music were very clever. Thanks again and I'll see you again soon

      Thanks Michael, especially for noticing and commenting about the still shots with Keira in time with the music since you are the first person to have noticed, or at least commented on that, and it was my favourite bit.

      Trish sometimes comes but with her bad knee I sometimes go off with Keira on my own and she seems to know it's a big walk when it's just me.

    Glad you didn't have to alter your plans too much cos of the windscreen.
    You are bringing back so many good memories for us with this series. We might just have to do it again next year.

    The Scourie coastal path where dogs are bold and sheep are frightened 😆. But seriously you can't stop enjoying yourself just because it rains, after all it is Scotland. Hope you got the screen fixed ok. Looking forward to the next installment. Great vlog 👍

What’s the mpg on the Toyota we get 32 out of Harry but I have had Toyota cars and they have good technology that way ? Enjoy your trip and great video watched the lot ....no skipping

      The walk was on the Walk highlands website and says you can see Skye and Old Man if Storr. I could see it very clearly from that point, my zoom lense is rubbish so the end shot was best I could do, but pretty sure it was the Old Man.👍
