Spring Highland Tour day 5 - she's lost her head.

Long day on the bikes today as we're heading down to Dumfries and it's a bit of a slog - Inchnadamph to Inverness, then A9 to Stirling, and M74 to Dumfries.
First stop is for fuel & a late breakfast at Morrisons near Alness, then banging on down the A9 again where we manage to leave Steve behind - traffic's heavy and we're overtaking alot to make progress. A quick text and we're back together again at the Stirling services were Steve has managed to arrive first and has had fish & chips and a drink - the other two had a detour into Perth to get fuel for Nige and Steve must have gone by then.
We're staying at the Mabie House Hotel tonight - managed to get a suite - very nice. The three windows on the middle floor are ours for the night!!

We spend the rest of the evening in the hotel & bar, food very good and guiness on draught. The one downside was this thing in the sitting room - we only saw it as we started going back to our room and gave us the creeps. As it happens, no bumps or screams in the night.
