    I'm guessing that you can't, what with the pathetic public transport up here... lol
    Can I have your job please since you can't get to it...

    The bus passes the windfarm access road ( signposted ) just after Bridge of Westfield and about 2 miles before Shebster. The driver will know it.

    There are earlier buses from Thurso, the Dounreay bus passes there around 7.30am. Not sure about the Wick to Thurso but surely there must be another Dounreay bus on that route ?

    I know a lad that is also starting work there but he lives in Barrock, no idea if he will be prepared to swing round via Wick though to pick you up but if you p.m. me a contact number i'll pass it on to him

    thats a fair detour, but if you got a bus to thurso he might pick you up in passing? just a thought?
