More greeting faced locals complaining about motorhomes (35 Viewers)

The latest whining from the nc500 lot is now about people putting little padlocks with their names on it on a bridge in Inverness. I think I've seen this in nearly every country I've visited to date. It's been happening for years . Now I know the Highlands is a little more remote ( Inverness isn't) but I refuse to believe that the locals have never encountered this trend by tourists before. Personally I think it's quite cute and does no harm whatsoever. One local numpty was quoted saying he was concerned about the weight and the bridge could collapse.


I swear the Scottish sun newspaper is deliberately trying to wind folk up with their daily nc500 stories.

The old bridge at matlock was damaged by the weight of the padlocks so people were asked to stop doing it. It started over 100 years ago and they are known as love locks ..together forever or everlasting love.
I often wonder how many lasted the course ?

Maybe it was caused by overweight motorhomes or some were attaching millstones?
