      Glad it was helpful. The video is a few years old but little has changed. Have a great trip! Arran is beautiful.

      Thank you! I have just uploaded a trip on the hybrid ferry 'Hallaig' running on battery, and a film of a trip on the Hebrides will be uploaded by the end of this week. Cheers.

    I've been on the ferry hope you enjoyed ur time in Lochranza

  • @CalMacandWaverleyEnthusiast

    Glad the Ardrossan staff were helpful, and I hope the trip on Caly Isles was enjoyable too.

      CalMac and Waverley Enthusiast I found ALL the CalMac shore staff and ship crews to be friendly and efficient! On this trip I did the Hallaig, Caly Isles, Loch Invar, Isle of Lewis, and Hebrides. Missed the Loch Seaforth due to the Ullapool kaffuffle.

      I have yet to travel on either of the D.E.H.V. vessels so that was a good trip to make.

    • @andrewjditton
      @andrewjditton  Před 9 lety

      I was lucky to get the Loch Invar, she was moved to Arran as the Isle of Arran was having trouble and was in Troon for a few days being tinkered with.

    • @CalMacandWaverleyEnthusiast

      Not sure I follow. The Isle of Arran is an Ardrossan Brodick ferry not a Ranza one.

    • @andrewjditton
      @andrewjditton  Před 9 lety

      Owing to the reduced A-B service with I o Arran being out of service, the Loch Invar was put on L-C to increase capacity on this route to use as an alternative.

    Where was the 'wind muffler'? Super video with a different perspective. It's even cheaper now to cross with Calmac's RET Policy. (Road Equivilant Tariff)

    • @andrewjditton
      @andrewjditton  Před 8 lety

      Ha ha! This series was mostly done 'quick n dirty' on the iPhone, so no muffler. Looking forward to RET too! Now Leverburgh-Berneray won't be more expensive than Uig triangle sailings :)

    Dear Andrea imagine me sitting with Philipps road maps from Scotland over your videos. Me: He went were? After looking at the road maps of Scotland: Oh he was there! I know that place!

    Just reiterating the last comment, great videos, keep up the good work.! Really good videos and moreover, interesting. What camera are you using, it produces some first class imagery. Thanks Andrew

    • @andrewjditton
      @andrewjditton  Před 9 lety

      Richard Allen Thanks Richard! I may continue the series yet ;) All the 'tracking' is done by a GoPro Camera inside the car, and the other stuff in this video was done on an iPhone 6. I have better equipment, but these wee things are far more portable and easy to handle.

      Andrew Ditton Hi Andrew, yes you must continue the series, seriously good videos..! I am due to make my annual visit to the Cairngorms in November with my two dogs, Edwin and April so was thinking of making a video diary myself - watch this space.! Thanks again Andrew.

    • @andrewjditton
      @andrewjditton  Před 9 lety

      Do! It'll be interesting for us West Coasties to see what the Cairngorms have :)

    • @andrewjditton
      @andrewjditton  Před 5 lety

    Scotland is the worst for potholes. They are everywhere unless you're in Edinburgh

    • @andrewjditton
      @andrewjditton  Před 5 lety +1

      Oddly enough Dylan, I found Edinburgh quite bad between Leith and the bridges... :-/

      @@andrewjditton that might be because it's not in the touristy part of the city. I think the city centre and the old town tend to be quite good.
