It's GOT to be. I know there are lots of vistas in Scotland but I think I was right there! Where is this exactly in the highlands?

I can't figure out how to do multi quote so -

There was a delorean at the last car show I was at. It was in immaculate condition and looked stunning.

The first photo is taken looking down towards Loch Maree in the Northwest Holidays. We've covered thousands of miles in the capri touring the highlands and never tire of it. Thoroughly recommend it. We also take the capri to the South of France and have some great photos from there as well.

You'd be surprised how many capris are still out there. The second photo is taken in front of the Just Jane Lancaster Bomber at the museum in East Kirby in England. There was a ford advert featuring a green capri in front of a Lancaster and the owners of the museum have for four years graciously allowed capri owners in one day with their cars (cars normally have to park outside). We were there last month and there were 70 capris there.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
