Which restaurant is that?..this side is good ting wise

 

[Argyll Andy]

The Corran Restaurant and Bar. Had a look on their site there and can’t see any mention of the restaurant so don’t know if Covid has changed anything??

The road to the left hand side is the slip to the ferry

Yup it’s closed..it’s a dead restaurant…it’s not operational…it’s fubar’d..it’s…

Hi Richie will you be joining us for lunch?..on the other side of Corran? I guess not?

No, planning much in Oban, nice Langoustine Platter!

Think i'll join Rich, that sounds better option than that mussel Peter tried to kill me with in tarbet ,

I've messaged Pete about this but since he seems to have left the forum, the place you were planning on lunching at Ardgour is not serving lunches at the moment due to staff shortages and Covid. I suggested that he phone them and double check but I don't know if he did or not.
I live across the water in Onich, happy to offer a toilet stop if anyone needs one.
The Laroch in Ballachulish is very good and has decent car parking if that suits. I can't recommend anything else between Corran and Balla :?

I was actually thinking about you while I was cleaning it and thinking two things

1. Thank f**k this isn’t black
2. This’ll not be this clean by the time I meet Stuart tomorrow

It will be fine. Is it too late to wash the car :lol:

 

[Scubaregs]

See you tomorrow folks.
Btw, Lynn can be a bit grouchy in the mornings, so if she growls at you just retreat slowly whilst throwing chocolate to her.

Absolute nightmare for us getting home today, got home after 10pm, was meant to be out for dinner at 7pm!
Shame as it had been a cracking day.
The A82 was indeed closed at Luss and we had to turn around after making really good time on quiet roads which was surprising.
Went back to Arrochar and tried to go along the lochside road to either the military road or through Helensburgh,. This turned out to be a bad move as well and after hours waiting heard there was also an accident on this road and were going nowhere, abandoned that idea and u turned again this time deciding to head for Dunoon (after hearing from Scubaregs that they were sent back to Crianlarich) and get the ferry to Gourock. First ferry was full and had to wait on the next one.
