    I have to admit - after driving for 10 hours to get to Lossiemouth I realised just how far North you can go.

    then taking another 4 hours the next day to get to John O'Groats.... (was kind of cool to stand at Dunnets Head and know the whole of the mainland UK was South of me)

    One of my customers near Edinburgh said his wife had taken the kids "up north". I told him I didn't know you could get any further north. He told me she was indeed at the end of the world.
