Yup...... Next Year, if I can get a Visa in time...

Pog, did you have a silver 1150 Adventure before the 1200?

Only we saw the above bike outside a hotel on Mull a couple of weeks ago with the Signature Line on the bottom of the reg plate that said something similar to "Pog o thon"...

Nope, CC, twas not me. The 1200 was silver until I changed it all a few months back to a decent colour scheme I'm assuming you know what it means, although many don't Hate to rub it in, but you missed out on a fantastic weekend in The Kingdom. It's going down in the diary for next year for definite

Frank,

I was using the point and push Fuji Film F401, now supersceded by the even better and smaller FujiPix F440. They always seem to take really good pictures on the 1m setting.

Pity I couldn't claim any kind of phototechy wizardry, only compose and push. We got the F440 a couple of years ago at Jessops (of all places) for about £150. Good price I thought and they're probably even cheaper by now. You will need to get a bigger memory card though

Cheers, Dave

Perhaps I should have said that member's number plates had been removed. Innocent cars in the shots, well, I'm not going to spend a whole lot of time doing that. And someone wishing to clone a Volvo is hardly going to be looking at a BMW motorcycle forum are they ?

It worked on my computer anyway. Try refreshing the page. If that doesn't work then I don't know.

And the road out to Kilhoan and Ardnamurchan Point, the most westerly point of mainland Britain

Pog,

Great to see the pictures of Ardnamurchan. I remember that, as a young graduate fresh out of college, I used to travel that very same road every Monday morning to get to work. (That's after leaving Edinburgh at 5.00 in the morning to catch the first Corran ferry of the day). Great in the summer, but could be hellish in the winter, (-14 c recorded one day), especially if the Hillman Imps heater wasn't working.
