Invergordon Area
Invergordon is small former naval town. Situated on the shores of the Cromarty Firth.
Invergordon's fortunes have been varied and since the navy has left it's been boom or bust with various industries arriving and departing over the years, in the 1970's the BA Smelter and more recently the Nigg Fabrication Yard. A development in recent years is the passenger liners such as the QE2 and Queen Mary who visit the port and use it as the stepping stone to the Highlands, being in travelling distance of Loch Ness, Culloden and Inverness to the South, easy reach of Skye to the West and Castle Mey, Dornoch and John O Groats to the North.

Thanks for you nice comments Rick. Which ship was your daughter on? There's one or two Italian ships that are regulars to the port. It's getting busier every year and this year is no exception. Hope your daughter enjoyed her trip to the Highlands even if she did nearly get court martialled!
Would love a good recipe for horseradish sauce.
Will look out for that liner. Thanks for the recipe....take your point about using a food processor it's bad enough when your eating the stuff and get a whiff of the fumes from the back of the throat. Horseraddish here i come!
