Tobermory's a nice wee town with a campsite, a few bars and plenty hotels, B&B's, guesthouses and the rest.

So thinking about a weekend there, 1 to 3 August seems reasonable. The campsite say they don't take bookings but when I asked they said they would reserve an area if we asked (seeing as we are nice folk :thumb2)

You can ferry there from a few places, have a choice of routes on and off the island, do a few miles on Mull itself. Do a big tour of the West with this en route.

Up for it? Plenty swallie :beerjug:

All welcome :clap

And as for the Independence debate currently going on, I think a truce could be called in the name of beer and drams :jager

Go and have a pint in the Mishnish instead. Her grandson went to school with the late Bobby McLeod late owner, Provost of Tobermory and the man who first painted the row in multi colours. Then his son, Robert went and painted the Mish black.....:blast
 
Fek, i'm out the country that week. Fekitty, fek, fek.

If any havn't been up that way before, get the ferry to/from Tobermory and do the B8007 on the mainland........just superb.

Let me know if the date changes will you peeps.

Did I say "interred"? Apologies for alarming you, it was a long day yesterday. I should, of course, have said "incarcerated", although I believe she was later interred on Mull as well.

Or "interned" might have been an acceptable word to use.

Any idea where she was kept during this period?

I might have known once upon a time. To attempt to find out any more, I'd have to make enquiries of the ex-wife from hell.

No probs. tbh, I'd suspect she was kept in the local police station in the cells.

Interestingly, I met a guy last week whose parents were British, I think his father was English and his mother Scottish and who lived in Berlin through the course of the Second World War. He said that they survived because his father was a typewriter mechanic who did work for the SS
