So, we're just back from a trip to the "end of the road" in bonnie Scotland. On our way up we were coming to the end of a dual carriageway on the A9 with those lovely average speed cameras. There was a truck and 3 lorries in front, plenty of room to pass before the end unless the truck pulled out, It didn't so I merrily passed it. Then I noticed that the truck had slowed slightly to let me pass and then pulled out behind me. Now for him to pass the lorries was going to probably be a little tight so I had to speed for him to do so. He did it but only just.
At the next cafe we both pulled in. My wife and I started walking but the young (compared to us) lady passenger was clearly keen to have a convenience break. She quickly went to one obvious building to find it was a gift shop, then she went upstairs to the cafe to no avail as the toilets were down. Then as we approached the stairs she reappeared to stop, point at me and say "I like your car", then carried on her merry way.
Now that was one of three comments in as many days about the car we had up there, but for sure, that was the strangest one we've ever had.
