"Rest A While & Enjoy The View." One of my favourite benches. Looks out east over the Avon Valley. Devoid of the dreaded traffic noise. Then walk down to the excellent Pantry Barn Cafe for a coffee & cake reward. #Breamore #BreamoreHouse #Happiness #Walking #NewForest

This camper van was not in Scotland, but parked up in a #NewForest carpark. Could be interesting if have to brake hard. #Happiness #Walking #VisitScotland #Scotland

This is my entire book collection. My vinyl collection is somewhat larger! #Happiness #Rock #Music #Progrock #Preciousmetal #Vinyl #DangerMouse #Kiss

End of not too enjoyable day last September. It was hot and sunny. Walking on roads. Got very cold the night before. Perked up by the excellent facilities at Moorcroft Holidays. #Happiness #Walking #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #NorthUist #VisitScotland

Possibly my best day ever. Last year walking on the west coast of South Uist. Amazing weather. Saw no one for hours. All I could hear was the waves. Just sat there pondering & then went for a swim. #Happiness #Walking #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #SouthUist #VisitScotland

Have to include the mandatory Highland Cow pictures. Taken north of Barra Airport, walking up to Barra Sands Campsite. #Happiness #Walking #Highlandscow #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #Barra #VisitScotland #Scotland

My @Fender Squire Mini Strat – before and after. Now with Warman Tennessee Revivals humbuckers. Gives me that dirty heavy blues sound that I was after. #Happiness #Music #SquierMiniStrat #Guitar #Rock

Looking north on the A865 about leave the Isle of Benbecular onto the North Ford Causeway to North Uist. Absolutely no idea why this fish was on the road! #Happiness #Walking #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #Benbecular #NorthUist #VisitScotland #Scotland

Just off the Eriskay Causeway onto South Uist. #Happiness #Walking #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #SouthUist #Eriskay #VisitScotland #Scotland

This morning giving a real good tonking to Rush Moving Pictures. Probably my most played album. Reminds me that if these guys, movingpicturesuk.com, are playing near you, they are must see. #Rush #Happiness #Rock #Music #Progrock #Preciousmetal #Vinyl

One sunny evening last September. Had a swim in the sea and then took in the views & the silence overlooking Kilbride Beach on South Uist. #Happiness #Walking #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #SouthUist #VisitScotland #Scotland

Looking out over Loch Creran near Barcaldine near the shut Scottish Sea Life Sanctuary. #Happiness #Walking #VisitScotland #Scotland

While walking north last year on South Uist, stayed at the Kilbride Campsite. Great facilities. Was another hot day and went for a swim. Started the next day with a few coffees & breakfast at the Kilbride Cafe. #Happiness #Walking #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #SouthUist

Yesterday I was mostly rocking to #Hawkind / Dreamworkers of Time:The BBC Recordings. The 1986 Reading Festival set is truly an amazing wall of sound that just sucks you in. This picture is from seeing the band last year in Bath. #happiness #rock #music #spacerock #preciousmetal

You shall not pass! On the Avon Valley Path just north of Fordingbridge. Never very happy walking near cows. #Happiness #Walking #LongDistanceWalking #Fordingbridge #NewForest

Yesterday I was mostly listening to Michel Palin’s The Python Years : Diaries 1969-1979. Full of charm & witty banter including some very personal moments. Pleased to hear me & #LedZeppelin both love Monty Python’s Cycling Tour episode. #MontyPython #SirMichaelPalin #Happiness

Last September was walking to Aird Mhor Barra Ferry Terminal and stopped to spend a few quiet moments on this perfect bench near Barra Airport looking across to Eriskay. #happiness #Hebrideanway #OuterHebrides #Barra #Ardmhor #Eriskay

So lucky last September as told I had the best weather of the year. Only rained upon twice. Just stocked up with cakes from the Croft Kitchen Honesty Box & passing this bus shelter when the heavens opened. #happiness #hebrideanway #outerhebrides #barra @BarraIsland @OuterHebs

Last September at Tangasdale Beach on the west coast of Barra. While walking past the @BarraBeachHotel, thought that looks far more civilised than my tent & that I must stay there one day. #happiness #hebrideanway #outerhebrides #barra @BarraIsland @OuterHebs

First play today #Rush #Hemispheres. For me, Side 1 is right up there with Side 1 of 2112. Speaking of which, a big thank you to @AMWallace_NI @BBCSounds for blasting out Temples of Syrinx a few weeks ago on the world’s best rock show #preciousmetal. #rock #music #happiness
