….have we told you how much we love Scotland? It has been a fantastic experience, we loved being in the Highlands, the Lowlands the inbetweenlands. Swung around a corner and found ourselves in a Falconary. The birds were awe inspiring and we learned that the relationship between the falconer and the bird is all about food!!! There go the romantic notions of relationship! The little fishing villages along the coast are beautiful and romantic beyond belief. And the people friendly and welcoming. We happened upon a “Folk Festival” in Stonehaven. The funny thing was Barbara was recognized as a ‘singer of no mean talent’ and Rod was acknowledged as a fair to middling drummer. (In the absence of a guitar he played an upside down metal wine cooler!!). It was a very good night and we laughed as we staggered home along the quay about “how the mighty have fallen”!!! Fortunately our B&B couldn’t accommodate us for a second night, in spite of popular demand…so the legend lives on……….we are on the other side of the world and so everything is upside down…wish you were here, miss you xxxxxxxx
