    If you're fed up with the howling gales and pouring rain then this cracking wee programme may lighten your mood. Marking 50 years of the Bothy association: some beautiful scenery, great archive footage and a sing-song to finish it all off.

    Tremendous stuff.

    Nice music. Didn't see all the way through to the sing-song.

    Funny, it made me yearn to hide indoors with a real fire, a dram and some friends with good singing voices! :-)

    That link interesting enough for me to turn off the ad blocker to access the Scotsman website for the first time in years. Never again.

    You must have a more advanced ad blocker than me, clicked through normally here.

    Opera with built-in VPN and industrial ad blocking.

    But what has the Scotsman become? That article...no information. The side-bar articles....Most Cannot Believe These Billionaires Wives Have Not Been Photoshopped.

    “That article...no information.”

    No detail but has “Latitude/Longitude” - which I thought bothy users were wary about being too public(?)

    Back in the day, yes. Not now. All cribbed from the MBA website for the article.

    I'm afraid the internet has made discretion about physical objects almost impossible. As it turns out most people are resistant to the idea of schlepping over a bog to sleep in a hut anyway.

    @chdot Adblock Plus on Firefox blocks The Scotsman for me.

    “As it turns out most people are resistant to the idea of schlepping over a bog to sleep in a hut anyway.”

    There’s a surprise...

    It's paddling, not rowing!
