Have you managed to get a picture yet? I have friends in Pitlochry who would hopefully be able to help if not.

The prices there are very touristy, head into Penrith and find some cranstons ones next time!
I'll speak to my friends when they are back in Pitlochry and ask if they can help, I'm not sure if they are in the digital age yet! |

Derek,
Please accept my apologies. it had slipped my mind until earlier this week when my wife mentioned a possible visit to Pitlochry so I was going to follow up this weekend. If you need any more just send me a message.
Been annoying any Cumbrian locals lately? I'm hoping for an invasion north of the border with a run up to Glasgow on Sunday via the back roads to watch a rugby tournament, depending whether son number 2 recovers from injury.........
Cheers,
Rob |
