Re: Groceries in Inverness

Hi All ,
Just to put a bit of perspective in , Terry ( it must be Terry L.) is a whole lot of a legend . I first met him in " Shielin o' Mark" on my first challenge 2006 . He came in early evening and spotted my 1/2 pint paraffin optimus roaring away and quickly shouted his son and said " this is one of those stoves l was telling you about!" , and followed it with," anyone got any coffee" . I was able to oblige. I was on my first challenge with a 50 pound pack and a blister on the sole of each heal, i made it to the finish and have remembered the encounter ever since , he is the salt of the earth as they say !.
Now that i am furnished with a Pacemaker i might consider having another go ( a 7th) in the hope of bumping into him . I am now stuck trying to discover the meaning of a "valid URL !!!!! .

Re: Groceries in Inverness

Well, William.

The sum of your character reference for our Terry is that he recognised a Primus and ponced a coffee.

I think you need to do better than that.

However I believe our 'foreign' visitor has already realised that the vast majority of Challengers are a thoroughly decent sort.

It's not really good form to protect the guilty party, but you do of course have form.

Re: Groceries in Inverness

No problem at all, folks. I see now that I overreacted to Terry's lighthearted post. The fault is mine, and I look forward to raising a pint (and walking) with you all soon!

That's the spirit Kent . Concentrate on enjoying yourself and looking after your feet . I now have to try and pass the URL stage , still don't know what it means .

Re: Groceries in Inverness

What exactly is your "URL" issue William?

Re: Groceries in Inverness

Re: Groceries in Inverness

Thank you for asking this, I am coming from the US as well and was wondering about where to get groceries. I dreamed last night I started out and had not packed food. :relaxed:
