I try to stay positive throughout life as my motto is that there is someone out there worse than you so I always try and I say try to be positive how things could work out

Glad the course went well
We can get to Inverness in about 10 hours on a clear run. It's mad to think that when we are driving to Orkney, once we get to Glasgow we are only about half way there.

It doesn't help that the a9 isn't a dual carriageway.....I live up Inverness way 15 year ago and they were in talks to dual the whole a9 back then xx
Yeah the A1 up to scotland isn't dualled above my town and it is so annoying, they've talked about dualling it for years but government don't care about us northerners lol xxDebt £30,823.48/£44,856.56 ~ 06/02/21 - 31.28% Paid OffMortgage (01/04/09 - 01/07/39)
