creates an oily film.

Diesel has the same effect and smells nicer

What is required is a constant strong breeze ,,camping can be hellish, Sandyhills is far from midge free but if we have had a dry summer (ha) they are less fierce, avoid camping in the trees at all costs

My dad loved a whiskey mac .Only a real piss head thinks Crabbies ginger is a mixer .

I had eye surgery after an impact and the next day my eye started to swell up and they had to draw fluid off by sticking a needle in my eye .Trippy

VERY VERY ILL

There is a nice coastal ride that can be added on to Dalbeattie

These are in fact offerings to the mythical “Dog Poo Faeries”

sulwath brewery castle douglas here I come

I played cricket with a guy who was a little intense .

A few years later he cut his dads head off with a samuri sword and kicked it down the road

My friend is a cop and had to sit next to him in the back of a van as prisoner escourt he commented on the guys shaved head and the nutter informed him that the last person to mention his hair had been his dad.

Then burst out laughing and said only joking

Glen trool blue has a slow dull up hill ,
with forestry comm rocks at the edges ready to catch out anyone who wanders off the trail ,it would bore anyone ,then a quick berm descent which could scare a beginner.
Avoid ,however for only a little more driving Kirroughtree blue is easy sweet and interesting with litte to scare anyone .

We have found Austria much better for kids lessons than France

Dalbeatie is my home trail
If you decide you are going there you can call in at my Furniture shop ” A.D.Livingston & Sons,” 183 King Street,Castle Douglas and I will show you some natural stuff on the map

I had it thankfully cleared up by itself

Avoid Glen trool for biking at all cost ,great walking beautiful spot nice pub ,however the 7 stanes trail there is shocking . Kirroughtree is my trail of choice

How about the liberal democrat way ,

Laggan it is in the middle

I would normally recommend Galloway but we do have the heating on and I have just booked flights to Alicante

That would be nice .

No it is time to stop for today and have beer

I took the piss out of some lads my mate brought to Kirroughtree because they were padded up .

Guess who fell off on a simple part of the trail and ended up pissing blood from knees and elbow.
