No details were given to Sheriff Gary Aitken about Spencer-Phillips' offences but he admitted stealing bank cards, alcohol, food and water from locations in Ardchattan; Bonawe; Spean Bridge and Glen Etive.

Mr Hughes said his client lived an itinerant lifestyle, but now had accommodation in Inverness, hence the age of the offences which had now come to court.

Sentence was deferred until December 3 for a background report.
