Your first time on Colonsay? Yes, how do you know? If you'd been to Colonsay, you'd have been to Kiloran Bay.". The beach itself is a lovely stretch of pale yellow sand, orange when damp, and calling anyone with any aquatic bent whatsoever to go for a swim. We walked its length, lazy waves lapping the sands.

Love of Scotland: June 2015
http://loveofscotland.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
To convey my impressions whilst wandering about Scotland. Companion site to www.loveofscotland.com. Wednesday, 24 June 2015. Impressions of the Faroe Islands. Let's go for a drive in the Faroe Islands. The roads are well-made, and quiet. The Faroese don't fuck about - back home, what would merit a winding single track road sputtering miserably to a dead end and a long detour, has a big tunnel bored through solid rock and a twin lane road. The views speak for themselves. And the best kept secret? Now I've...

http://loveofscotland.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
To convey my impressions whilst wandering about Scotland. Companion site to www.loveofscotland.com. Sunday, 29 March 2015. Thoughts turn at this time of year to spring cycle trips. And where better than Galloway, with its quiet roads, rural charm, and coastal villages? We took the bikes from Rockcliffe to New Abbey on a glorious spring day, intending to climb Criffel and visit the ancient abbey. The streets of New Abbey:. View over the Nith from Criffel summit:.

To convey my impressions whilst wandering about Scotland. Companion site to www.loveofscotland.com. Monday, 23 February 2015. Posted by Robert Craig. Friday, 13 February 2015. Ecosse Profonde in Newburgh. When you're visiting Scotland, where do you go? Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, Glencoe, Skye? Where you are not likely to go is the northern shore of Fife. Even the Fife Coastal Path. I don’t know about you, but I find that irresistible. It really is someone’s garden.) The other strange feature above...We aske...
