5th of 8 Tumps round Glenfarg. For a change met a lovely helpful land owner who advised us to park our car in her drive to the stables to get it off the narrow road. How considerate was that. She even advised various walks in the area to do. Five stars from me. None of this what are you doing on my land with Covid about??Dibs02/04/2021
