Visited Edinburgh twice, in the last ten years ( well three times but once was a blink and you will miss it touch many years ago) I fell in love with the city and also enjoyed visiting Glasgow - I would love to visit again and look around lots more. One day maybe. Liz

Hi Keith You and I not spoken before but just to say as a Southerner living in Scotland have to agree with you Scotland is a beautiful country . I visited the East Coast alot before moving and can still remember beiny driven through the mountains and being lost in the scenery, I just had the Braveheart in my head and expected Mel Gibson to come running out of the trees lol I'd recommend it to anyone !!

Have only been once, but loved it! Had a cottage near Kinlochmoidart on the west coast - the scenery is superb, the solitude refreshing. Saw my first (and only so far) red squirrel. Edinburgh is a lovely city, too.
