Hogmanay In Helmsdale.






I spent this New Year in Helmsdale and had a great time. Helmsdale lies about seventy miles north of Inverness and about forty miles south of the most northward tip of the UK, John O' Groats.

We have just had the coldest period in Scotland since 1963 and I remember that well as you can see by the old photo of my mum, sister and me on a frozen Loch Lomond.

It is all very nice but I had three burst pipes as a consequence and given the choice, I think I would rather have it a wee bit warmer.
