I know the tale is that it always rains in Scotland and when it's not raining it's snowing! Not true.
Black Isle rainfall is about the same as East Anglia. West coast gets rain due to mountains/Gulf Stream etc but it is usually mild. Are your waterproofs midgie proof though![]()

Steve they were made for Hillman Imps as a job lot so they will be fine!!Originally Posted by steve748

To tell the truth I don't think the shop gets the joke as I am not sure they are supposed to be!
The pumps are relics of the sixties I reckon but it all adds to the atmosphere.
Pity the prices are not still in the sixties.![]()
As regards waterfroofs you wont need them! We have blue skies and no clouds and everyone is in shirtsleeves etc. Typical day in the Highlands!!![]()

Plus I told Julian to sell you some dodgy gloves because you wouldn't commit to a KTM there and then![]()
