Thanks for the info. I've cycled from Broxburn to Edinburgh along the canal and it's not too bad once you get to Ratho. Hopefully it will be a bit warmer in August but the way the weather is going that could be doubtful. Going West to East as the wind will hopefully be behind us. I'll report back and let you know how I get on.
I'm cycling from Kilmacolm, where I grew up to Dunbar, where I now live next month. The bulk of the trip will be along the Forth. & Clyde Canal and then the Union Canal. Does anyone know whether the paths are decent enough to cycle along?
I have never won the French Open Tennis tournament, a distinction I share with Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic.
And in a couple of hours time two us will still never have won it.
I have never crossed the equator so the joy of seeing water go round the wrong way has eluded me.
I have never been to a Casino so have missed out on the joy of losing what little money I have.
I have never been in a helicopter. I was offered a birl in one but chose instead to watch Scotland thrash the Faroes 6-0.
