THIS BLOGSITE IS PRIMARILY A LOCATION RECORDER / AIDE-MÉMOIRE FOR SOLO ROAD TRIPS AND DOMESTIC TRUCK TRIPS. IT'S ALSO SOMETIMES USED TO LOG OTHER RANDOM ACTS OF LOAFING AROUND.

NONE OF IT IS MEANT TO BE PARTICULARLY INTERESTING.

Property Hunting Trip - Day 3 - Scotland

Blogging at 20:38 on Wednesday 28th October from overnighting spot N 54.99299°, W 03.43189° / http://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:54.99299%2C-03.43189

Things to remember:
  • Pleasant drives through parts of Dumfrieshire that are almost certainly rarely touristed.
  • Newtonairds Lodge is pretty impressive at £180,000.
  • Merlin, whooper swan and black-tailed godwits all randomly encountered whilst just bumbling about.
  • Birdlife around the Solway is just awesome.
  • Thousands of geese, wildfowl, gulls and waders came in to roost on the mudflats and saltmarsh in sight of our overnighting spot (coordinates).
