S-Westerly Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 If anyone on the forum works in HR for a Scottish based shipping company please look away now.Someone decided it would be a good idea to send me to Rotterdam where I can get a Covid test and then quarantine in a hotel until the result or until the ship berths. So firstly I don't get the right information as to where I shall be collected from at Amsterdam airport. After 2 hours someone turns up. I then get transported to Rotterdam and check into an admittedly nice hotel. Agent's rep says it's a 10 minute walk to clinic so off I trot. 2 miles later I find clinic and it is CLOSED. Turns out it's closed all weekend and the earliest I MIGHT get tested is Monday! I am somewhat pissed off. To add insult to injury all the bars here are heaving and social distancing is a joke. Haven't seen a mask since I left the airport. Could be worse though I suppose.View from prison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Than you have to get there by yourself. No agents no nothing, but in all this years I got use to it actually prefer this way. Not to mention that I was pissed of in the beginning as was use to agency service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a similar trip but in 2 separate routes.Did the east coast on one and west on the second.The west coast journey I started from Lochgilphead and up to Oban, the road to the west of Lochgilphead is really nice with stunning views.

Fish Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I did the distillery tour a couple of years ago (ok it was in a car) but I can recommend the A86 towards Dalwhinnie from the west coast. Lovely road with some nice straights but plenty of sweeping and tight bends. The pics are from one of the scenic stops I had.Fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
