I went to the Inverness Highland Games today with my youngest and eldest. Despite rather rubbish weather it brightened up a couple of times. Got this one of Jim Mactaggart in his biplane who gave a 10minute aerobatic show - impressive stuff. He's back tomorrow at 3pm if any one wants to see him.

What a fantastically Scottish name!

I'm unsure on the pic though, not really doing owt for me at the moment, sorry.

Good action shots - if the last picture was a man, I would have found it even more amusing :lol:

Yep, like the last two, although it looks like she has a bit of (invisible) string attached from the weight to her kilt, and in the last one it appears to be lifting the kilt just above '59'

Ha - whilst you were there I was trudging up sunnyside / clava trying to get a good shot of the railway viaduct!!! I did watch the parachute team from my mum's though!!

Fiona and I are off there tomorrow for the proclaimers gig and then back down south on Monday, might even squeeze in some more shots before that!!:wave:
