A Trip to Scotland and the Western
Isles July 2000

After a meal in the cafeteria, we spend the rest of the two-and-a half
hour trip on deck with an intermittent sun to cheer us. When we arrive
in Ullapool, however, black clouds are gathering. The outlook for further
travel is not good. In the Tourist Office near the harbour, they tell us
that there is no accomodation on the Ullapool to Inverness road until Altguish
Inn which is at least 30 miles away, so we opt for a hotel in Ullapool,
as the time is now nearly 4. We stay at the Riverside Guest House and have
our dinner down by the harbour in a non-licensed restaurant, where you
go to the bar next door to fetch the drink you want with your meal. A practical
way of defying the licensing laws.
