Our friends Helen and Gary had the chance to take a micro-light flight around Gigha just before they got married yesterday. Helen took a a few pictures of our plot and here they are. We have moved on quite a lot since.

This picture shows the plot in centre foreground with Ardailly Mill down by the sea bottom right and Mill Loch central with the east side of the island and Sound of Gigha in the background

Ardailly is in the foreground with the track curving round to the plot and the Mill top right

Our layout shows here with the wee shed adjacent to the track with its turf roof, the driveway flanked by beach boulders stands out and the big shed footings to the right hand side of the large aggregate pile. Stock piles to the left hand fenceline of the plot. Our trial excavations for the roundhouses show exactly where they will be. Yellow blob = non functioning JCB. The full story of our dealings with second hand JCB salesmen will be detailed shortly - once we have checked the wording for any defamatory comments.

Here is a pic of the happy couple too.....
