yeah man i love it up there. the only thing that is sad is the indian tribes, the totem pole ones, are so in poverty. but its fucking awesom to hike up there, on the beach.
yeah scotlands country side looks so beautiful. wish i had gone up there when i went to scotland. but no time. maybe next time, i can go up the lochs and see.

At school my best mate's family upped sticks and opened a guest house in Blackpool. Last I heard they'd sold the little B&B and bought a hotelon the sea front. I wonder what he's doing now?

http://www.rubycon.org/photos/glencoe.jpg
one of the creepiest and most beutiful places on the planet. the weather can close in on you in an instant, and it has some of the deadliest mountain passes in scotland. this place makes you feel very, very small and insignificant. in 1692 the campbell clan massacred the macdonalds here, one of the worst atrocities in scottish history.
jimmy saville has a house there as well, in fact, i think he lives there! now then, now then!

yeah man, banff looks the bollox, just like a bigger scotland really. which is why it's called banff i suppose, seeing as banff is actually in scotland! those settlers must have seen a little bit of home.
