Sandwiched astride a bar stool between two old lads I felt rather at home at the Tyndrum in. One an Aussie from NSW of 64 and the other a Dundonian of 57. One makes films for Hollywood just finished Mad Max 4 and the other served in the British Army, French Foreign Legion and now pans for gold in Scotland.

No this is not a joke it's just another day in a wee place in Scotland where everyone is shouting at the TV urging there team to win.

The TVs are switched off. The games is lost, Film style we down our laphroigs hollywoods suggested method paid for with gold panners coin "Slanj" my contribution to the scenario and set off into the rain in the direction of our abode for the evening!
