| 0:24.6 | We find our hero. |
| 0:27.0 | Well, I would say on the banks of Lock Lohman, but not quite. |
| 0:32.0 | Currently, my position commands better views of the A82 than Lock Lohman. |
| 0:41.0 | The thing with big natural points of interest is actually quite hard to get at them, because |
| 0:51.0 | there's a caravan park, private property. There's a big sort of visitor centre, which is |
| 0:58.0 | just dogs and kids and people going in and out of the toilets, all fine, all part of what |
| 1:06.7 | is essentially a services. You don't really feel like you're experiencing Lock Lohman, |
| 1:15.7 | but it's a very rich, full ataurus, who's just pulled up on a Kia Sportage to expect the |

| 2:39.9 | 50 lend, a really 40 lend. You're saying it was nearly 40 lend? I am. Not really depressed |
| 2:46.3 | about it. What about that? Some people are paddling on the lake. That's what I should have |
| 2:52.6 | done. Should have gone swimming in the sea, but I was too anxious about sort of the logistics |
