Welcome, is it good recumbenting country up in NE Scotland?
Not bad. It's fairly flat to the North of Aberdeen, up toward Fraserburgh (but if you feel the need for exercise, there are plenty of hills out to the West of the City!).

Windheetah #201 and a Street Machine GT.

Though the windcheetah seems to get used only very rarely.

Greenspeed GTT tandem for when I can find some company

That's a very nice collection mate. Particularly envious of the tandem. Not because I want one, but because those who own them invariably have larger wallets and/or more compliant companions than me.

A tandem is a badge that says "success."

thanks arallsopp , I aught to confess that all were "pre loved" and I still wince at the cost of the tandem as it cost 1.5x the cost of my car but the real shame is the lack of use that it gets.

QNT, out of the Dtek stable.
Wymondham. Owned it a week, looking forward to the next ride.
Bout 1+ hour from Cambridge Trikebeard.
Catch my heels on uneven road. Not a problem. Only size 8.5 feet. Wondering about the cleat position, (spd,) but am used to the mechanics of as it is.

I find I prefer my cleats well back in the winter, cold weather used to leave my toes numb before I moved. This also helps with heel strike so I leave them set back for the summer.
