In the Summer of 22 I put a thousand miles on my rental car driving the highland roads of Scotland. That includes this section of A82 as well. It was my first trip to Scotland and I hope with all my heart it wasn’t my last! I loved every second of that eleven days, and every mile driven.
Wonderful views up in the Highlands, I use to go every year usually stayed at Invergarry (25ml north of Fort William) nothing there, but a good location to get anywhere in the Highlands. I can't drive the long distance to get there now, I miss it everyday........❤️
Nice roadworks in Glen Coe. Was in a queue on the bike for half an hour till I decided to filter up to see what was happening. Convoy escorting traffic up and down just after/before ( depending on which way you are going) the petrol station. That was two days ago. Have they finished yet? Good video as usual.
Making his way to Glencoe... In February of 1692, under government orders, a regiment of government soldiers from the Duke of Argyll's (Campbell) militia, came into the glen. Most of the troops were Campbells, or septs of the Campbells, but the strict code of hospitality required the MacDonald Chief, and his people, to give food and shelter to the unwelcomed guests. But as will be seen, this was no social visit. "To Captain Robert Campbell of Glenlyon ' For Their Majesties' Service' (In old English, exactly as it appeared) Sir, You are hereby ordered to fall upon the rebels, the M'Donalds, of Glencoe and putt all to the sword under seventy. You are to have special care that the old fox and his sons doe upon no account escape your hands. You are to secure all the avenues, that no man may escape. This you are to putt in execution at five o'clock in the morning precisely, and by that time, or very shortly after it, I'll strive to be att you with a stronger party. If I doe not come to you att five, you are not to tarry for me, but to fall on. This is by the King's special command, for the good of the country, that these miscreants be cutt off root and branch. See that this be putt in execution without feud or favour, else you may expect to be treated as not true to the king's government, nor a man fitt to carry a commission in the king's service. Expecting you will not faill in the fulfilling hereof as you love yourself, I subscribe these with my hand. (John Dalyrmple) via Duncanson.
