Filling station queue

Another queue at a filling station. Saw 2 on tuesday. As i only pass one station on the way to work, that's a 100% rate of an unscientific survey.

I wonder if it'll have an affect on people's May Day long weekend? I was wondering about attacking some of the hills behind Blair Atholl, but reckon on saving fuel and walking from the Braemar side instead.; 10:33 pm, April 24, 2008
Anonymous said...: Well Duncan, the long walk in is more virtuous! Save petrol, burn your legs! Which hills are you after? There was tons of snow on the Cairngorms when I drove past last week - has a lot melted?; 11:22 pm, April 24, 2008
AktoMan said...: Thinking of walking up Glen Ey and across to Loch Loch (so good they named it twice), and investigate Beinn a' Ghlo. I was up Carn an Righ and BIM last year and saw the inter-connecting glens.

Outline plan:
Saturday - tab it in to jumping off point.
Sunday - hills.
Monday - tab it back.

All depends on snow levels. And having enough petrol to get there/back.

I've a brother living at Blair Atholl, so I'll get an eyeball report from him.; 8:46 pm, April 25, 2008
