Things you may have missed..

Sorry guys, it has been a bit frantic over the past 5000 kilometres - a few highlights..

Birthday Party

Guide and Broom at Beach Wedding




Cuddle from Emilie Fiona

Good to visit many friends - albeit briefly, some appeared to have grown (Emilie) learned new things (Emilie) and some had perhaps shrunk (Sarah) and forgotten things (can't remember who this was..) It was lovely to get cuddles rather than the double kiss of Espana and a final 50th Birthday party made sure we all had a good laugh and a bouquet of asparagus.

I also sampled the barristic skills of Andrew, Donald, Sarah & David Scott as they presided over coffee machine in Edinburgh Kirkwall and Stromness - the winner was in one of the Kirkwall locations.

Then it was off to an idyllic weding on Iona to celebrate Amanda and Gerry's wedding. We were able to catch up withfriends last seen 25 years ago and sit in the sun on the beach and toast their happiness with champagne, eating venison, langoustines and other favourite things. At some point the dancing stopped and the couple rowed off to a getaway schooner - last seen headed for Tiree!
