Close .........You dropped the important "e"..........Craigellachie.

Still sounds the same, much like "mickeybo". em, no it doesn't. :green gri

Its a historic place name.
Craigellachie although translated into English long ago, it has the same meaning "rocky hill" in Scottish Gaelic.

The name Craigellachie comes from Scottish Gaelic "Creag Eileachaidh", meaning "rocky hill," and refers to the crag above the River Spey where the village sits. It is also tied to the Grant Clan's battle cry "Stand fast, Craigellachie," referencing a sentinel's beaconfire on the rock.


"Stand Fast, Mickeyboy O' Craigellachie." :D
Great 15yr old malt by that very name too.
 
Many distilleries up in Speyside, they even have Distillery tours, Great plan to have your bike serviced at Mikeyboy's, go on a brisk tour of each one. Remember though, drink limit is lower in Scotland.

Slàinte mhòr ........Can always fill a flask for later..........:jager
 
Hey best wishes on the new Venture Mikey.
A bit far to collect my R80g/s from Guernsey when it’s due service 😝
Maybe one day up get up to your place , will you do BnB ?
Thank you (and Charlie of course )for doing a top rebuild job on my Dakar.

Craigellachi
And a very nice corner of North East Scotland, but I thought you'd bought somewhere on the Black Isle ?
I went through The Craig' yesterday morning , let us know where you are, and if there's coffee on :thumb2

We had an offer on a house on Black Isle but it didn’t work out.
I’m far happier with what we ended up with where we are.
I’m on the same phone number,
Text or call if your in the area,I’ll get the kettle on.👍
 
You're just over the hill from me!
You're in a handy location.
I know a Ducati guy who stays there.
I think that you're a bit more ' over the hill ' than Mikey Iain :augie

Anyway, it was good to see you again today at Mr Moto in Forres, been a while :beerjug:
 
Good luck Mike; feel free to pop round for a cuppa, you know where I live as you brought and collected a basket case airhead off me. Only about 40min away👍

It was good to catch up with you too yesterday.
It's a 20 minute ride over a "long" hill then!
