Six Days Leave from Shorncliffe Travelogue in Scotland and England
Sergt Roy Kerfoot of Minesing recounts a six day leave visiting Loch Katrine and Brig o Turk. He notes rough heath-covered hills, deer on Ben Venue, and a tiny Ellen's Isle with Ben Ann as a backdrop. The party, dwindled to four, travels by boat the Walter Scott and by coach through Callander and Aberfoyle, reflecting wartime travel and international guests.
