For me it's Ayrshire, the missus says she's been as high as the orkney islands.

On the other hand having spent several weeks working on Flotta Oil Terminal some years ago I can confirm the earlier posts that the Orkney Islands are very scenic and interesting - although the weather is still a bit hit or miss even in July!

I've also been there - in fact, went to a football match there, Albion Rovers v Cowdenbeath. One of the most depressing places I have ever been to! Rows of ugly grey buildings and decaying tower blocks. Albion Rovers' ground, Cliftonhill, is one of the bleakest places you could ever wish to watch a football match.

Orkney islands. Quite a nice little place actually. Sadly only for a few hours which was quite disappointing

Edinburgh, Feb 1989. Saw Hearts beat Buyern 1 - 0 in EUFA cup & it was bloody freezing.

Annan, we didn't stay too long!

Inverness, hire a lovely cabin cruiser and spent a week on the Caledonian Canal heading west to Fort William and back thru Loch Ness. Lovely holiday and would highly recommend it.

I lived in Elgin for nearly 3 years, during which we visited the Shetland Islands. Beautiful place with plenty of interesting historical sites.

We lived in Gardenstown, just east of Banff for 5 yrs . Lovely area often missed by tourists .
