The Home Run

Aye, I realise that most of you have probably been missing me and the posts seeing as I technically havent been writing for about 2 weeks now but rest assured I am alive and kicking. Since we last made contact I had left the very chilled and ver...

Ahhh Scotland, you just can't beat a morning when you wake up, look across the park outside your hostel and you hear the distinct sound of bagpipes. You can be nowhere else. Arrived in Glasgow late in the evening, like about 01.30 and didnt quit...
