    So far the only book I have right now to take with me is called 25 Great drives in Scotland, the pages are marked with the places the tour is taking us around, planning to read that on the 10 hour flight over to put me to sleep hopefully.

      That should be interesting the noise from the zoo. Ok, then. When in Key West, we get the noise from the free roaming roasters who cackle and crow at all hours. Sad that someone has not something to the poor soul in North Korea, he is a real nut case. Can't understand his purpose with all that, his goal. He must be a mini Hitler.
      If something happens and I can't get back to USA, I'll be posting for a bed room with one of you.

          I expect we could cope! And force you to be a tourist in Falkirk, visiting the Kelpies, the Falkirk Wheel, the Roman Fort and Antonine wall, and Rosie would make you walk with us in our favourite local country park :)

            Hi Redstar, saw that you will be in Glasgow the weekend after next. I live near Glasgow, and if I am not away that weekend I would be happy to meet up/show you around Glasgow, depending on your itinerary, and whether you are free. I will PM you my mobile number, and if you find yourself at a loose end, just drop me a text.

                    IMG_1040.JPG IMG_1041.JPG Had a nice surprise when we got back from our walk this morning as these had arrived...:hapydancsmil:

                    Can't put up the actual tickets as there is a lot of personal info on them and I don't want anyone to see who we are:snorky:
