With Planning Permission apparently imminent up to the A95 at Gaich, the kind offer of "Big Railway" expertise could not be turned down, in surveying the alignment of the proposed Track over the Dulnain on to the long straight to Gaich yesterday, unfortunately Georgie on Leave for a few days.
I didn't understand it but I think we used 10 metre chords and measured versines off them?? using the centre of an underbridge close to Ballintomb Farm as a reference point. On occasion I did manage to assist where I could, above is Chris crouching in what should be the "four-foot" in the not too distant future.
Chris and colleague measuring below what they called "The Thermilizer" but I suspect they were taking my ignorance too far!! I have to thank them for their time and effort, had I not left my wallet at home I would have bought them both a pint afterwards as It certainly was a hot day.
