200 miles on 3/4 of a tank, that's good going too, is it manual or auto?

It's auto but I was in relaxed cruising mode - don't expect I broke the speed limit all day  :D

Looks wonderful up there, I'll shamefully admit that the furthest I've been over border is Stranraer & PortPatrick (on the west coast) & Lamberton (on the east)
We keep meaning to have a trip up, but never seem to get round to it

Know what you mean, there are still loads of places I haven't managed to get to - I'm going to make more of an effort to do some more sight seeing up here,and get to more steam fairs as well - only managed Pickering for last 6 years and really want to get to Great Dorset

Can't say I knew her, but if my memory serves me right there used to be a Johnstone family from Port Ellen, Tommy and Alec seem to ring bells may not be connected.
I left about 20 years ago, I'm from the Mc Callman family who were related to some Johnstone's , cousins I think.
