off in search of nessie and the lesser spotted haggis!

im off to the highlands at midnight tonight, staying in a place called fort augustus, on the southern end of loch ness.
never been that far before, but im going in the car, so should be fairly comfy if the glorious summer continues!
if any of you blue tinted sporran ticklers is in the vicinity and sees someone trying very hard to erect a tent in the middle of a wet field tomorrow morning, pop over and say hello!
anyone know what the weather is likelyto be for the next week or so?
ta,

I am not joking

weather has been damn good in Scotland last few days. Outlook good. 26deg in Glasgow today.

It's not the south up here, you know!

i just wish i was going on the bike! but my daughter wants to find nessie, and she isnt on the bike yet, so the car it is! plus id never have got all the crap im taking on the back!
ive only been to scotland once before, to loch lomond, but the weather was great then, i just hope its as good when im there this week.
i got hammered by the midges then, so i have plenty of repellant this time(why you think im going in the car, ive got boxes of the stuff!!!!)
cheers all

Weather is to be reasonable up Inverness way,Fort Augustus you will love a wee bit touristy though,plenty Loch Ness Attractions and on the doorstep of Urquhart Castle were one of the many sightings of Nessie was captured on camera.

its a bit touristy, but suits me fine for what i want. my daughters never been to scotland, so from there we can go to inverness, fort william, ben nevis, skye, etc without to much hassle.
not looking forward to the drive though, not slept and im feeling it now! bring on the red bull!!!
