Wednesday
Bridges - over the forth road bridge, pylons for a new bridge being built to our right and the famous Forth Rail bridge to our left.
The plan was to drive to the Boroughbridge services and then head our separate ways.

Day 5
Andy drops by around breakfast time to help out with Keith's wiring and see us off..
9am on the road again, a destination in mind now rather than just the drive, coffee and 'wake up' stop at Jedburgh we meet with two RhoCar members, Alantoon and Zeroknowledge, on the road south and push on to the border.

It would be a nice spot, if it were not for the noise from the Kilted bagpipe player and food van generator!
Looking north...
...and south...
The route takes us off the main road through Bellingham and on to Hexam, rolling english countryside taking over from the Scottish heather.
We all meet up for the last time at Boroughbridge services, re-fuel, say good byes and head home. The only remaining drama is avoiding an aluminium ladder dropped on the motorway requiring evasive action.
The Scotland Tour ends here, but my own drive continues with David to an overnight stop near Retford before the final leg home alone tomorrow. Andrew kindly waits and waves us off at the motorway junction.
David and I wrap up the cars for their last overnight.
