Quick detour as well..... What a time for a pork pie....:)
A1 had 4 major closures with detours..., The M11 was also closed for a junction. Not what you want at the end of a ride, Along with the 2 inches of snow and ice on the M9 for a mile and a half (in June!) and torrential rain on the M74, an eventful ride. But I think I've got the 4 northern Scotland locations :D

Well, that's just brilliant news for the middle of June, a week away from the Summer Solstice!!!
Good effort on your 'popping out' Gordon.

Great ride Young Gordon saw you were wondering round a grave yard at Wells of Ythan.
A little disappointed there. No place name signs, even the commemorative plaque for those lost during both world wars (when I found it hidden on the graveyard wall behind the gate) merely stated 'those lost from this parish'.

Fortunately 'the in case of emergency' location was still in the phone box. Even though the phone had been removed 2 years earlier. I couldn't see it on google earth though...... Ythanwells.JPG
