Delighted to hear that the Kishorn Selfie Box is open for business! The what, you ask?......... The kishorn selfie box and book exchange is an old red K6 telephone box situated in the pretty village of Kishorn (A896) on the popular North coast 500 route in the Scottish Highlands
Why not Pop in and take a selfie of yourselves…a fun way to remember your trip to the Highlands
Then tag them on your Facebook group (the kishorn selfie box)and Instagram ( )to join a gallery of selfies
They also have a wee book swap where you can borrow a book to enjoy. The box looks forward to seeing you on its selfie gallery wall - and hopes you have a wonderful trip!

It's been a very settled week so far.....here we are looking across to Skye just a few minutes ago. I'm not sure it totally makes up for a dreich and cool summer, but heh!
