Feb 2012

during my time in Holy Loch(Dunnoon).....ate my first haggis there...ate some delicious fish and chips...occasionaly the brit sub sailors from faslane would drop by and trade rounds....had a sweet red headed fwb there....oh yeah, and everything was really, really green there...and cold...it rained sideways and the sun set at midnight....but overall i enjoyed the scottish experience, the scots always were extraordinarily nice to us....seeing the castles, the highland games...a castle donington festival....i'm rambling.....

they had our posiden and polaris missiles there for 30+ years.....faslane wasn't to far from the loch....there are other places to put it....
