Christmas is next Holiday

November 16th, 2011

It seems like yesterday we were having a well deserved Christmas break and now here we are again seeing the Christmas ads on TV every night and wondering when the postie will deliver the first Christmas card!

The influential Chinese delegation, which has the power to promote destinations, made a special request to see the area after a visit from Inverness tourism representatives in 2008.
