A most excellent long weekend

Thursday night was Metallica on their WorldWired Tour at the Hydro in Glasgow, a quick turnaround after work then a blast down the motorway, we made it to our seats before they started.
They made their way to the stage to Ennio Morricone's The Ecstasy of Gold, more commonly known as the tune in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly film. From then on it was pounding bass, drums and lead and vocals to match, a brilliant show from start to finish.

Friday was a tad more sedate with a trip to Drummond Castle near Crieff for some fresh air and photo taking.

Saturday we went for a run on the Big Yam to Braemar via Kirriemuir and Glenisla, a cracking day made more interesting with a hellish head wind most of the way there and back.

Sunday we went for a wander round one of the  Logierait Woods paths, great views and fresh Perthshire air and only 20 minutes away.
