This is fantastic Foggie, I couldn't agree more with the title and as for An Sgurr, what a spectacular sight. Not as spectacular as a whale breaching, but almost. I would love to take that trip someday and if I do I'm going to stay in those Yurts you linked to....they are so cheap its unbelievable :D Day two was a cracker too but the Eigg/An Sgurr combination takes some beating :clap: :D

Not sure what this guys is doing though..............

Beautiful, from start to finish. An Sgurr looks sensational. I need to get out to these isles....
