Had to drive from Dyce to Glenrothes so took the scenic route, absolutely beautiful place

Put some momentum in the tank at tesco. Leaving the forecourt it was clear both ways - the road must have been greasy because I fishtailed the car off the forecourt.

Yes it is v v good. There are also 3 episodes on YouTube called "Ogmios School of Zen Motoring" which the chap did prior to the TV series. I did have to internet search for the meaning of ASMR tho but glad I did.

Apparently The West Midlands have more Canals than Venice.  Have some more pictures from my Thursday Lunch time walk.

Don’t  think Venice would swap quantity for quality somehow!
