Why not Gretna then A75 to Stranraer and A77 north to Greenock. Short ferry across to Dunoon or round the corner to the Bridge. 100 miles further but scenic on good but interesting roads. Allow 4 to 5 hours Gretna to Glasgow.

Texpeed good value for money and decent abrasion proof. Get the right size and can be worn over ordinary trousers or on their own.

Do you get extra points for following the gritter in 3 to 6 degrees. Some slow cornering today. First two on the list. Galloway Smokehouse and Portpatrick Church -
Texpeed clothing any good?
donald463 replied to mas101's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
I bought a Texpeed pair of trousers mainly on price. Texpeed jacket has been ideal but velcro is wearing out after 2 years use. They look and feel good but have had wet crutch in really heavy rainstorms. Use them now as summer trousers(no thermal lining) and have others for winter. -
Just got back from southern Italy (regretably in a car) The roads are in a dreadful state with potholes that would swallow a car. On some of the motorways there were holes as if a monster had taken a bite and a 100 foot drop to the valley below . No obvious signs of repairs in progress in the next millenium!!

Parcel delivered to Argos by a carrier that could just as easily delivered it to my home. Only advantage I can see is if it needs signing for and you are not in. Argos sends you by email a code number and they will not let you have parcel without it. This usually means you cannot collect parcel until day after day of delivery.
