Island of Skye before the bridge

Hej....  I was digging through some old pics and found these from a trip to the Isle of Skye before the bridge was built.

I hope you like  

I took these in September 1992 when the misty Isle was still very much an Island.



I love how you call your Locomotive 'Oor Wullie'

james73

@Unh@ppyb@st@rd - that's a really good pic mate cos it's stalking season and had
you hung around for about half an hour the only photo of him you'd have taken
would've been a bit of cooked venison...

@AlanM - aye, that's why it's called 'Scotland in Miniature' mate...

cheers guys & girl for comments, its 1 of 14 shots i took of same beastie, dont think theres a bad one in the bunch. His name appropriatly enough is Big Fella  

On more serious note there was another deer at same spot but the park rangers put it down for attacking tourists.......... how sad is that. they feed them burgers, chips, mars bars, put thier arms round them, pull antlers and they get pissed off when they are attacked. PUT THE TOURISTS DOWN the deer live there.

Seconded.
