Patience Jane! Circumstances will bring them within your reach - at times I'd virtually given up hope of getting to Callanish.... But you know some of that story!

Habibi makes doing it by bike sound lovely because it would be (in good weather!) and easy because it is.

It's just that other factors get in the way for most of us! (Fitness etc for you, you say. And for me, laziness - as well as fear of the misery of bad weather when on a bike & camping!)

Still having to be patient for the Orkneys myself! I'll get there - maybe not this year, maybe not next year, but when the time comes I'll be ready!

Welcome Habibi! Your idea of getting some 'training' in & doing the trip when children get old enough is actually very appealing. Unfortunately my son, Callan, isn't even 2 until October!!!!

By the time he's old enough, I'll be too old (late 50s) to even get on a bike. Just kidding! (I hope!!) :^)

love

Moth

ach, come on now moth - remember the old tribe way back there round the ancient campfire.. tales being told of the land of the hyperboreans and their great lunar temples beyond the north wind.. you and the others planning the great trek to check it out for yourselves.. no transport back then mind.. you wouldn't have let a wee bit o' rain put you off now, would you?
