Went for a nice run up the west coast this weekend and thought it would be a shame not to visit this location.
Now I was quite happy to play the part of Bond but I don't think Di was to happy with her role

spot on Iain, if there was a prize you'd have won.
On a side not can anyone explain why when I view this post on my iPad it cuts a chunk off the picture off?

Picture is displayed at 1:1 scale (ie. full pixel). Simply too wide for your screen.

The pic is oversized for the forum window and some browsers handle this badly. IIRC.
Great shot and location, Dave. That your Aston peeking into the frame too?!

Yep, I just thought as we were up that way in the car it would be such a shame to miss out on a cheeky wee parody of Skyfall

The photos uploaded with the horrible scroll bars are actually uploading as an attachment, not doing it properly
This takes up space on the server and we'd heartily discourage this, as we'll have to delete some at some stage, I'll bet. Also, even if your screen resolution can show the photo properly you'll get a vertical scroll bar, meaning you can't see all the photo at once, even if you've got a big screen and high res. Please avoid doing this

What Shug is tactfully trying to say is, use the IMG tag to link to the photo from its original location in your photo sharing sites
If you hit Quote for this post, you'll see a worked example for the image below...
