Aye, Ruairidh, when we lived in lovely Lanarkshire, we regarded that as "The Deep South." I do hope the tour included visitng the nearby listed building that was the factory for Galloway cars. Perhaps passing Dumfries, the similarly listed Arrol Johnson plant invired a short excursion. And for excitement did you try the site of the High Auldgirth Hillclimb? Difficult to say whether it is a public road or track, but when I recently cautiously ascended it the chap using farm sheds at the top was quite happy to reminisce about hillclimbing days and how the village and the pub missed being being so busy. Now Charles, when living there did you put a fast machine up High Auldgirth, or do you have snaps of hillclimbs. Or were you still at primary school in the 1990s?
