What a day !!!!

Post by Kinger » Sun Nov 09, 2014 5:20 pm

Went out to get some rolls for breakfast just after 9am this morning and didn't get home until after 3pm..........Magic, the sun was shining, the sky was blue only one thing left to do!!!!!

So went for a wee drive, out through Strathdon, over the Lecht down into Tomintoul and on to Granton on Spey, with the sun shining all the way. It clouded over at Aviemore so stopped for lunch. Down the A9 at 60 /70 mph with new camera's in action, fueled up at Pitlochry then the great run over to Spittal of Glenshee and the best ever run over Glenshee down into Braemar, only came across half a dozen cars. all at good passing places. Then just settled own for the run back into Aberdeen.

Oh I love my Exige !!!!

Would have come with you but looks as if you did not plan it.

Fantastic day out, I Guess you were heading south.

My car must have been filthy by then, with the wet roads early on today.

Yep, we were on the return to Dundee. Didn't see how dirty the car was as we passed on the undulating section just before you reached the flat / straight climb to Glenshee ski centre, so as we reached the peak of that hill, a white Exige popped over the other side and passed :lol:
