LANG MAY YER LUMMIE REEK...

 

As well as being the worlds malt whisky capital, Dufftown is also right in the middle of the castle trail. With Balvenie Castle already ticked off the visiting list of Daniel, Jon and Maria, Sunday afternoon saw a wee trip to Auchindoun, which offers the most spectacular views over the River Fiddich and beyond towards the Cabrach. 

 The long light evenings are just perfect for FIRE CLUB which officially opened for the 2013 season on Saturday night introducing Daniel, Jon and Maria to the delights of outdoor whisky drinking and avoiding the reek from the fire.

* The carefully posed picture above was staged with pain staking precision to remove any indication of the sheer primeval excitement that is FIRE CLUB in case it should be viewed by any person of a nervous disposition.
