Help: Packing List for 7 days in Scotland in June

[Ed Brzezowski]

I don't think anyone has yet suggested a knit ski/stocking hat. Having one to cover your ears on a cool, windy day can be a really helpful. I wore mine often last month.

Bought one at Dornoch 11 years ago, and used it for the round. Going back in July for a new one. Damn wind was chilly.

Great weather here at the moment with 21C today. Midges are also an east coast animal it is just that they don't block out the sun like on the west coast To be fair on a links they should not be a problem as there is usually a breeze but I would recommend using 'Skin so Soft' from Avon which is what most of the game keepers use to keep most insects at bay.

One additional question --- any advice on a good digital camera?  Something "mid-range" ideally.

Nick,

I'd recommend a Panasonic Lumix point and shoot.  Fits easily in your golf bag, has a very good lens made by Leica and won't break the bank.

I'd second that. Just bought one myself and already taken it away. Good quality lens, good zoom, good video quality if required and easy to use.

Panasonic TZ30 Lumix
