    It’s lovely to see the islands. We can see Islay and Jura from Northern Ireland and I always wondered what it was like!

    It’s a camper, a normal camper. It’s not a micro camper, there are people out there in teeny tiny campers like Vitos, Caddys or smaller and they do just fine. Yours is a standard size camper or it would be if it was furnished. You’re motorhomers, which is why you find it so small.

    Gemma & Campbell, I'm sure ye'll of heard of this already but if not... On your hikes... instant noodles with a wee bit of extra water, when it's piping hot, add a tablespoon of potato power and mix well. Pure fuel and it tastes the bomb... and it weighs nothing in your pack. Over here it's called "Ramen-Bomb". Hope you's try it! Great video, glad the weather played along, mostly.

      That is a great idea! Good for calories in the longer treks 😁 I’ll keep it in mind thanks!

    If you're interested in seeing more of those well-preserved tombstones, I'd recommend Oronsay Priory - which you can only get to by walking from Colonsay, at low tide...!
