The boys from the west got a bit of a slagging
when they left the boat to the south of Loch laggan
they got accused of jumping ship before they had finished
but had fulfilled there contract all the way to Glen Finnan

But when the chips were down and Lakota needed help
who should appear but the boys from the west
through the wind and the waves they went without thought
to bring back home their friend on the yacht

The lifeboat towed them home safe and sound
with Donald Jock at the wheel and Rossie controling from the ground
we got them to kyle despite what was said
that the boys from the west never had it like them

Well you can eat your words and take them all back
cause the boys from the west have it all thats a fact
but it was all our pleasure and theres no need for thanks
to get we don home was our pat on the back.

Hey guys!
Loving reading all your stories and progress - it sounds like such great fun!
The breakfasts sounds fab! We have been having continental for the last 3 days but our 2nd hotel does proper fry ups, so we'll be having some of them next few days.
Christa I was laughing at your phonebox story, and thats me after 2 vodkas, haha, I could just see you falling out the door. Hope the arm is ok.
Enjoy the rest of your trip, can't wait to read more stories. Have fun & take care,

Well done Christa and Simon, you are so brave. I can't wait to see your photos.

I'll be thinking of you over the next few days, take all the time you need. Your family is far more important than anything at work!

Hey Christa & Simon!
Good to hear your having a lovely time already and you got there ok. Your hotel sounds like it is gorgeous, but too right!!! New job going ok, settled in fairly quickly, what a different life from COA though I must admit. Its an early start but worth it for sure. Start my longer days next week for my flexi Friday. Take care, my love to you both. Kels xx
PS - I hope you have a beautiful wedding day, sure you will xx
