West Highland Way Aug 16, 2002
Spent most of last week walking the west highland way (WHW). If you dont know what the WHW is, it is a long distance walk from Milngavie (pronounced Mul-guy)a town joined to the north of Glasgow over 95 or so miles to Fort William. The walk passes through some of the most beutiful and desolate areas of scotland, to be honest it was breathtaking. Living in southern Scotland you sometimes forget the amazing country surronding us.
I found the way was a life changing experience, after completing it I feel I can do anything. So if you fancy a holiday with a difference I would highly recommend walking the WHW.

France Jun 20, 2002
Not been posting for a while so thought I'd better make an entry. Just got back from France where I was at a conference. Top stuff! fine wine and food but I did eat veal by mistake (thought it was pork). Anyway the with the world cup in full flow and England doing well (but no really playing that well) i'm in a bit of a quandry. I'd like to see England win due to nice nieghbourly sentiments(i'm half english after all), but I dont want them to win as the smug harping on about it fir the next 36 years or so may be too much. Och well I could always leave the country! (if you are English imagine Germany winning and you are stuck there surrounded by smug german fans , its a bit like that for us in Scotland )
