"It's not so remote and we have stuff...we have a Co-Op, and a chemist and a woolens shop and a fish and chip shop and a post office...it's a veritable metropolis!"
As long as I can get a wee dram of single malt, a decent pint and may be some fresh air, I'll be happy.
I'm a man of simple pleasures,  |

The air is so fresh here it tastes sweet (I think so anyway)
There are 2 pubs in Kyle, 3 in Kyleakin (other side of the bridge)
Where are you staying? |
