Great Scottish travel writer, walks to Mull of Kintyre (VIDEO)

You may all enjoy this video about the great Alasdair Alpin MacGregor, who waked from Glasgow to the Mull of Kintyre lighthouse one day(s?) in 1935. That was Stakhanovite walking - in the year in which Alexei Stakhanov was first acclaimed for having mined 100 tons of coal in one shift.

These are a few of MacGregor's (pictured right) observations on his hike:

It is great fun, and witty!
