Tapps, whereabouts on the Yorkshire Moors are you staying? Please tell me you're not camping.  :shocked:


Rusty stayed at a half decent B&B in Bradford before heading up to Scotland, a really friendly host with a secure garage etc.


Wherever in Scotland you are heading I do hope you don't have to suffer the bloody rain that Rusty and I had,  :mfr_lol: it never bloody stopped until the last day.


Have a terrific trip and stay safe.


One last thing, not sure which way you are heading into Scotland but I'll share with you what we were told, north of Loch Lomond, as your heading towards Glencoe there is a very straight stretch of road, this one.....

The local plod have a speed camera that'll get you at 3km, now that's just not cricket! They often park up on this stretch and they've got you before you've even seen them.
