Mugdock Reservoir: The Victorian Engineering Marvel We Almost Missed

By

Our little big adventure really did not want to end at Tannoch Loch. After leaving Tannoch Loch, we got back in the car and started heading home, but then we saw Drumclog Moor Car Park and something in me said, wait, why are people parking here? What is actually around here? So we drove past, then reversed and decided to have a look. I am glad we did because this little decision took us somewhere we had completely missed earlier in the day. There was a map, so this time we actually stood there and looked at it properly, and that was when I realised there was something else around Mugdock Country Park that we had not seen: Mugdock Reservoir. Remember how I told you we had gone looking for Mugdock Castle earlier and somehow ended up at Craigend Castle instead? Well, apparently we had been walking around Mugdock without fully understanding just how much was around us. This time, with the map in front of us, we could see the reservoir and decided to walk towards it.  When we...

Our pre-Valentine visit to Pitlochry

If there’s one thing I love, it’s the countryside. I know it’s not for everyone, but for me, there’s nothing better than being surrounded by nature. The peace, the open space, and the freedom of living away from the constant noise—it just feels right. I dream of a life in my own little big town, tucked away from the world, with a farm, a horse stable, cows, goats, elephants—yes, elephants—and all the joys of country farm life. So, when we visited Pitlochry as part of our pre-Valentine's adventure, I was excited. The drive there was just as enjoyable as exploring the city itself. Pitlochry has its fair share of attractions, but what truly captured my heart was the quiet, the vast green landscapes, and, of course, the animals. It felt like a perfect escape. Pitlochry is a charming town located in Perthshire, Scotland. First Stop: Pitlochry Kinnaird Our journey began at Kinnaird , a charming village in Perthshire, Scotland, known for its deep history and breathtaking scenery. The ...

Something About This Just Doesn’t Feel Right

This has been sitting on my mind for a while, and as uncomfortable as it is for me to write about it, I feel like I need to get it out. I have been going over the same thoughts again and again, trying to understand why I feel the way I do. The truth is, I haven’t come to any conclusion. I’m not accusing anyone of anything, and I’m not trying to create a problem where there isn’t one. I genuinely want to look at this with an open mind, which is why I’m bringing it here. Sometimes you can ask a question directly, but sometimes even asking the question can make it seem as though you have already made up your mind or are taking offence. So instead, I want to tell you exactly what happened and let you tell me whether I’m seeing something that isn’t there or whether you understand why I feel a little uncomfortable about the whole situation. It started with a property I was trying to fence back home. When you are not physically present for a project, you have no choice but to trust people. Yo...
