Good Crieff!

Well as a vet (as in veteran, old and wise beyond my years), I thought I'd better get myself onto the 06 board. So far I've managed to avoid the 24hr Barfitup Virus, although after a long night out where I'm sure the hostelry in question usually manages a very high standard of hygiene, let themselves down by not quite getting the last glass spotless. Nothing worse than having the whole night go through the heed once more.........
I wish all a belated Happy New year and for those interested I'm running a sweepy on Sunny's resolutions! I do this in defence of my fellow men and await with baited breath the results of her punishing regime, I mean Arran - nae alcohol!!!!!
As for the title of this piece, nice place, I've passed through it often enough must stop sometime.

Happy New Year Scottish Soldier. So far I'm just a bit hungry, then again it's only day two... Argh! Wassisname... Ewan McGregor is from Crieff and they have a lovely Hydro where I fell off a horse once. Is this the sort of thing you're looking for? Oh sorry... thought I'd wandered onto the Life on Harris blog. Maybe the new regime might be affecting me more than I thought.

Crieff is nice. I had fish and chips there waiting for the RAC to rescue us after the fanbelt disappeared at Lochearnhead during our Xmas escape. Unfortunately Crieff has the wrong garages and we had to be 'recovered' rather than getting a new fanbelt fitted. The Vauxhall garage in Aberdeen, where we got a new belt, has a workshop big enough to hold every car on Coll, including the ones at the tip. Shame they couldn't find a mechanic to fit it!

Where are the Mull bloggers? Only six postings since 1 November! How are those of us way over here to know what's going on? More Mull blogging, please!
