Not out the woods yet...
An evening run looking for somewhere scenic. Now back home and enjoying a dram of a ten year old Octomore. It's a tough life. By Pronie Loch;  In Glenbuchat;

Shouldn’t an Octomore be 8 years old?

Octomore can be all sort of ages with 10 years being one of the oldest. "Octomore" comes from the Gaelic name of a farm in Islay, Ochdamh-mòr, which stangely enough is pronounced Octomore. An Ochdamh was a measure of area being one eighth of a Davoch which was an area of land measured by how much land was needed to grow a particular quantity of a crop or, meaning of course that as a measure of area it varied from region to region or even field to field depending on how good the soil was and makes much more sense after a dram or two.

Great photos again Calum! After your description of land areas I need a large G&T (though being at Prescott for the Bike Festival all day might also account for that
