2 months ago I found this no problem, and with Ruskus I took the wrong path again. We came in from the Mintlaw side along the forestry track. No twats letting down tyres this time :-)
Played a concert in Tarland last night. Went to the pub (in the square I'm often in there) and they were speaking about the stone circle at Holmhead. Freezing, unbelievably cold wind!!
