Ian W Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 You didn't take your bike with you by any chance? Should be a few good runs around the Galloway forest. I'm from the Borders (further East), plenty mountain biking over that way too. Other than that, nothing much I'm afraid!! Some nice scenery and drives around but that's pretty much it. You're not all that far from Glasgow if you want a longer run and something half interesting to see / do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was supposed to be a biking holiday but I have an infection in my foot so that's out the question, looks like its a driving holiday then.

CJ Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Go to Dumfries and visit a pub called the "Hole in the Wall". I did this many years ago and I still have nightmares about it. I recall having copious amounts of beer and dancing with what I thought was a young lady, only to find that when the lights came on the clientèle resembled those from the bar in Star Wars!
