    I would recommend the Rutland at the west end of princes street, very nice and not that expensive, we stated there as students two years ago so can’t be that expensive?

    What is it like for ‘wild camping’ (but with a camper van) can you just rock up wherever with your camper van and stay the night or do you always have to go to a designated spot? what sort of prices are we talking for a spot for the van per night?

    The Parthenon is in Greece….

    But the Pantheon!!!! Holy crap, I was absolutely blown away by that building!!! I love architecture so like to go see buildings and this is certainly the most stunned I have been by any building, its nothing fancy really, its just the pure size and scale of it and the atmosphere, along with wondering how on EARTH did the Romans build that 2000 years ago???? HOW??? First building to be building from concrete that (albeit an slightly different form)…

    the way that it tapers away is fantastic when you are looking from the ground, the taper gives you a fantastic emphasised perspective from the bottom!

    It’s a bloody skyscraper sat amongst 10-15 storey or lower buildings!!!! How do you expect it to ‘fit in’ … Explain what you mean by fit in? Would you rather it s brick?

    In my opinion it would look horrible finished in a complete point, just wouldn’t have the same effect… Bt has anyone seen the letter a four year old boy who passes it in e train every day, sent to renzo piano telling him it should finish in a proper point… He even drew a picture haha.

    It’s a fantastic building in my opinion, can you think of another building like it in the world? Sure there are plenty of skyscrapers but no one has though to do it like that and it’s suc a simple idea!

    Now when you look at the Walkie talkie, that is a monster!

    I tried it last year but my camera broke and i only had a really crappy phone camera so gave up! I have a decent phone camera now which is handy for this kind of thing! Also having moved to London there is plenty to take photos of every day now!

    I’m in!

    does that code work only for 50% off those headsets or does it work on other things too?

    ah really? that’s cool, at least one of you knows how scary it was then! It was an experience anyway! Did you just walk up to the falls and back or do a larger route? We were aiming to go over that path, then up the valley the the Morvich centre and into the head of Glen Affric and back down… we should have just drove round to the Morvich centre and done the 2nd half of the route and drove back in retrospect! Nice waterfalls though

    John – I’m new to this video making melarky, give me a few weeks and I might make another one ;)… I have a day on Skye (around the Quiraing and the Old man of Storr) and two days in Torridon to bring you yet!

    Druid – Quite probably it was obvious on the map, we were not too bothered about the old hike-a-bike, it was the treacherous drop that scared us!

    Na he wasnt an alcoholic, he was Willie and was super nice!

    Soma – Usually I would but you know what its like, most dont know what mountain biking is so you ask about a path with any sign of a few rocks and they think ohhhh youll never ride your bike down that! but usually its the best tracks! so we risked it! It just mean hike-a-bike instead of ride up which wasn’t so bad!

    Yeah decent was alright but not the best we had all week, like something a bit more technical, ltos of margin for error is more fun ;) …. yes pesky drainage channels, although it was the guy with his tyres pumped up with dual ply tyres that got the flat! my single ply softies were fine!

    Yeh, despite nearly falling off a cliff we had a laugh!

    thats even cheaper… however as a side note, dont use white zip ties!! once weathered they start to go brittle and snap easy, use black ones.
