In the debate of what is normal drive distance and what isn’t between the US and the UK, my favourite bit of discussion has to be either:
A: that Americans see 30 minutes of walking too much
B: that one guy who said “Americans flex about having lives that would make me kill myself.”
To answer the question, nothing happens in those islands except from sacrificial cults and biological weapons testing.
Midges
NC500
Ben Nevis, Glen Nevis, Loch Ness, Loch Lomond, Wicker men.
the wicker man
Did he post that retort on his drive to the bathroom?
Weather
3/4 of the coastline of Great Britain.
Whisky. And weather. And the sea. They’re all interestingly interlinked…
The best whisky.
Some of these islands are stunning on a summers day (with sunshine)
Kinda boring if it’s raining and grey. Beaches are untouched and the water is very clean.
I did a backflop last night
It’s essentially an 8 hour drive from the most central city in England, leaving at 22:51
Rain.
I’ve seen some things in that part of the world I tell ya.
The strangest was a viking longboat appearing out of the early morning mists.
More rain and more cold
Weird slightly over the top Scottish nationalist and some bloody good distillery’s
It’s a 10 hour drive from me (north east) setting off now (22:53)
Four hours from where?
It takes 4 hours to get there from Glasgow, let alone the rest of Britain.
Having been there a few times, not much at all. I visited Tobermory and sure it was nice, but I would never ever want to live there. I don’t know how those people cope
All I know is my parents met on one of the islands there…
Some of the best scenery on the planet, go in the off seasons to avoid the swarms of insects and people. Early winter is the best time imo, less people no insects but you have to plan because everythings shutting down. Theres not many places to stay or eat but youll be able to view some breath taking scenery almost alone. Im going next year with a tentbox on the car and a few months off.
That’s where the wild haggis live.
Rain, whisky, and likely fishing
Some good drams
Most of the ancient Kingdom of Mann and the Isles, plus an extra bit of Scotland.
“My aunt lives in Scotland; she says it’s quite nice.”
Tons of amazing archaeology. And whisky. And midges.
It is probably a big longer to drive to the islands…
Between 10 and 12 hours drive from where I live to most destinations in that area and there are plenty in the UK who live even further away.
Sheep shaggin and whiskey drinkin
Whisky, the best in the world. As an Englishman, I am so grateful for the Scottish and their amazing skills at making Whisky. No way could we do it! 👌
Some of the best motorcycle roads in the land ❤️❤️❤️
I can confirm that it is not a 4 hour drive from England to the outer Hebrides.
Last time I went to Inverness from Stoke it took 8 hours. And the roads to Inverness are good. The roads in western Scotland are barely even roads.
Here be the whisky distillers and strategic sheep and coos
Tweed.
Sheep, that’s what.
The icecaps of doggerland still reside there, we’re just not brave enough to venture the cold
