Duke of Gordon

Not often you go to a football match where the ground is overlooked by a monument.

Scottish Cup tie away to Elgin, the most northerly league ground in the UK. We had a lovely lunch stop on Aberlour on our way and the journey north was interesting, travelling through all the villages with distilleries.

Elgins's ground was a proper, traditional ground. We stood in the covered terrace where we were so close to the players we could hear them all shouting at each other!

The game finished 3 nil to the Dons. Relief but more importantly a great day out!
