I’ve always found it goes in the day you send it and they receive it that defines which draw it goes into. Weekend doesn’t seem to make a difference.0

I have left the log in details at home so it's irrelevant anyway. Can't do it here at the moment 😀
Just been for a lovely walk with the dog. Now back home and breakfast will be ready shortly. We are certainly being spoiled.

Well the weather turned very Scottish this afternoon. We still had a lovely walk though.
We are now back home, changed and dried out and sat in front of a roaring fire. The dog is spark out.2 -
It has finally stopped raining here after raining for much of the night. On the plus side it has rinsed the bird poo off the van.
This morning we are heading out on a decent walk. A 5 mile circuit route from here and then back for a Scottish breakfast again. I could get used to being fed like this every day. Dinner tonight is a roast beef Sunday dinner which I'm really looking forward too.
I believe we are heading to the coast again at lunchtime. Not sure where though.2 -
The weather has been a lot better today. We had a lovely walk this morning in the local fields. And this afternoon we have been to the coast.
Now back at home. The dog is shattered and fast asleep in bed. He has really enjoyed himself.

Unfortunately we have to go back home today. We are going for one last local walk this morning before coming back for breakfast. Omelette this morning made with fresh eggs from the girlie's in the garden. (Sydney is going to miss watching chickens 🤣🤣🤣)
Then we are heading for home. We are expecting a long drive home today.
We are calling at the shops on the way home to stock up on plain bread and a few other bits we can't get at home. Need to get some diesel as well. We would easily make it home with what we have but we are out again next weekend so it's just easier to top up today.
Also on the hunt for some LPG today.3 -
Every time I see your pictures of Scotland I’m reminded it’s somewhere I’d definitely like to visit. Looks amazing.1
