Most of us couldn’t imagine living in such conditions, however, I found a man who does.

During my recent door knocking trip to the Scottish Highlands I spent quite some time looking for a croft in the middle of nowhere.

After many wrong turns into muddy tracks and tight turnarounds in derelict farm yards I eventually found the croft I was looking for, how my small car made it through without getting stuck in the mud I will never know.
