Traffic

[IBM]

Wm Low's where I worked!  A Mini, Ford Escort and I think a Renault heading towards Bridge St.  A Commer Camper van (luxury then) and a Triumph 1500 or 2000 going on to the bridge.

Driving north along the A82 today coming into Invermoriston I am transformed back 50 years in time to when I was a boy!

OOOOOgh! That's not Gellions, IHE,  that's looking up frae the brig  at the Ness café up to Church Street isn't it?

[Scarlet Pimple]

IBM  it's nice to be transported back by a memory or a whiff of perfume  isn't it? The older I get the more I tend to reminisce and ....sometimes....I get weepy.

 

Am I normal Charlie?

[IBM]

OOOOOgh! That's not Gellions, IHE,  that's looking up frae the brig  at the Ness café up to Church Street isn't it?

The Gellions is on the left half way up before the top of Church St, I wonder if IHE ever made it that far up!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Regularly in front bar, back bar and remember the "snug" upset twists.   .

[IBM]

No IHE I was meaning as far up as Church St
