RE: Roadtrip: Scottish Highlands Part One
It was a Friday night, so close enough! The cops arrived early, but seemed to be chasing ghosts for a while. The thugs were taunting them somewhat, knowing they couldn't really be arrested just for going bare-chested.
It was the low point of our trip for food, it gets better after this :)
Good! The heat makes people here a bit crazier than usual! Still, that kind of behaviour is not exactly a rare occurrence in Balloch, despite its location at the foot of one of Scotland's most beautiful and iconic lochs!
Also the police know the local thugs. I used to play tennis and one of the local cops was our tennis tutor - a lovely guy who knew the idiots who tried to break into the empty flat next door to me (they failed as they were making such a racket that I phoned the cops and they were there in minutes. The gang members kept yelling out the gang leader's name, which was quite a helpful identifying feature.)
