Wild camping positive thread photos needed

[Fisherman]

Shots from the top of goatfell on arran.
on the first shot it was misty but the reason I posted it was to explain why an anvil was at the top of the hill (2866 ft). Well it was dragged up there by four locals. It took them four days to get it to the summit. I tried to lift it myself and could not do so the second shot was taken on a clear day about ten years ago.
If you look way over in the distance you will see the hills I took this mornings photo from.

When lockdown eases we're intending to be in the private field, foc, in front of the red roof smithy's cottage and will be the only occupants.

But where is it?

And this is (almost) the view we'll have.
It will be a view of the dunes and beach immediately in front of us, the castle will be in full view off to the right.

Just had Pheasant for dinner, and very nice it was too.

Only one shotgun pellet found in the leg so my teeth didn't suffer too much.

Remember and get your dogs protect against ticks. Brevacto works well.

It can be dry we like to casserole them.

It cooked really well in the Remoska, ideal for that size of bird.

I have a steady supply, (I bet you do too!) so I will try casseroled next time.

Shooting is finished for now but the keeper has a chest freezer of oven ready birds.

Is that to go with the pear tree Julie's got lined up for you to plant?

Pulled two from the Rockster to date, Bravecto given to him last weekend, they're a tad early, the ticks that is.

You actually get them all year round but more active from spring to autumn. My mate got one in his back about a month ago.

This shot was taken on north Berwick law. A man had broken his leg and was being rescued by helicopter.

on previous photos I mention fionann Lochan. This is the second largest Loch on Arran and you can walk up to it from mid thunderguy in about 45 minutes to an hour. Once you get up there you will find an peaceful quiet location with the Lochan surrounded by some stunning hills. Well worth the effort. There are two beeches and we have twice seen people swimming in the Lochan. When you look over to the west and the kilbranan sound, you will see the paps of Jura On a clear day.
