Good stuff. Forget about the history degree it's not as important as hillwalking. The only courses i'm interested in is retirement cousres, to allow me more time on the hills :D

There is a very good path all the way through the estate and for pretty much the majority of this walk. I was kept on his leash until we cleared the main buildings and grazing deer and did what auld dogs do, ran ahead and looked back to see why we were so slow or was that Ron??? :roll:

Ha ha Pigeon, if it wasn't for the hugemungous path, we probably would have thought we lost because
no-one has ever mentioned it before
