Have never been.

Love the low clouds up there, in the Highlands..

Indeed it is. You have to climb up the narrow staircase (and of course have to wait for other people to pass, or get them to let you pass) then climb up through a small trapdoor at the top. Was a really great view. Very atmospheric with the weather as well.

I always like it when the low cloud rolls over the treetops, something about that is just great.

I'll find some videos of Scotland & Lake District later.

First of all, going to the shop for some sweeties, for the Man Utd vs Real Madrid game.

Random facts:

The red deer deer in SW England England are larger than those in Scotland and the Lake District (the other major areas for them in the UK) because they were reintroduced from Germany to the SW and also subsist on richer grasslands. The ones in Northern England and Scotland are the ones which have always been in the UK.
