El Dorado?

It's not even an anagram for Dal Riada but anyway that's what we call it.
One was a mythical city of gold, the other a Gaelic overkingdom on the west of scotland and also a pub on Porty beach.
This was obviously the latter.

Although it was a nice view and the real ale was pretty fair we're still not happy about the 'dogs only in the garden' rule.
Such a shame and if it wasn't for this we'd visit more often.
Anyway, Barney enjoyed the garden till it got just too cold - he's a greyhound you know...they don't have thick coats.

More grease monkey stuff on the land rover today.
Another 5 minute job that turned into a 3 hour mission :-)
All good fun though and the leaking fuel spill rail has now been replaced.
Only 1 emergency trip to B&Q required for an 8mm olive (pack of 4 for 98p=bargain), a new set of pliers and a junior hacksaw (don't ask!).

So pleased I made 200 blips yesterday - really enjoying it :-)
