ps Beate is right about Oban . . . it's a lovely place, particularly if the weather fine!
We'll be in Glasgow for breakfast, as we are going up by sleeper, but I don't think 7am would appeal to many fmukers!

Anyone know if Tarbert is worth visiting? I got given ferry tickets to go from Uig to Tarbert, but don't know if I can manage a whole day on the isle of Lewis.

Preference of cinemas:- 1. Glasgow Renfield Street Cineworld, 2. Glasgow Showcase, 3. Braehead Odeon, 4. Vue Fort, 5 Glasgow Springfield Quay, 5. any other cinema in Glasgow area including Hamilton
Also Falkirk, Dunfermline and Stirling but these are rarely used for free previews.

It's been quite decent the last few days. I have to highly recommend Creelers at Broadford - really lovely top quality food, my friend said it should get 3 michelin stars even though it's housed in a beach hut.

........ that's something of an under-statement!
Yesterday was a lovely day in the west of Scotland but today is like a winter's day again . . . . cold,wet and very windy!
Glad you've made it across the border, superhero! o/
