fingertroubleDitch the funny money
Just to confirm that Scotland like the infamous customs story is 'abroad'; not only have they got there own language which is used commonly in the Isles (gaelic, sounds like no other language I've heard), they also have their own currency.
Sure it's British pounds, but YOU try telling that to the guy in the offie off the Kings Road on a Saturday night. Some notes like the pound note aren't used in England anymore; and I've had notes refused despite being perfectly legal. So I've been hanging onto the English notes and ditching the funny money.
On the ferry to Uig on Skye atm. From there I'll take a bus to Portree, say hello to that old friend where I stayed 5 years ago, then onto Inverness by coach then hopefully London to meet John (I've missed the cuddles, if there are any highland bears they are hidden in a broch somewhere). I can't get email btw.
