Whatever happened to...

[frizzie__kizzie]

Yo people, whatever happened to the mini run to Doune Castle for Monty Python shinanagins? Has it been and gone already and I've missed it or did it just get abandoned? I thought it was a great idea!

:I:clown::kiss:

That one just got abandonded....

Hmmm...
Well seeing as how I haven't organised a run yet... watch this space for next year.... I have a plan..

A plan so cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel... :D

It's where most of the castley scenes in Monty Python's 'Holy Grail' was filmed!

"Fetchez la Vache!"

"You sons of second hand electric donkey's bottom biters!"

etc etc etc... :D:D:D:D

I know it well but didn't know it was filmed there.

What? You mean there are some people that aren't interested in the ancient and noble art of sparrow pulling? <coff>

There's 4 of the locations within an afternoon's drive - Doune - Loch Tay - Glen Coe - Castle Shuna. Watch the documentary on the DVD. It's more or less the route we did for the Ballachulish Run two years ago.

Start saving those coconuts!

Now I'm off to water ma SHRUBBERY!
