THE forecast’s for rain and thunderstorms today, but when we get up it’s dry.

Before breakfast I take a walk along the road to take some photos of the newly extended double yellow line parking restrictions in the village for a wee soy for the G63.scot webzine.

I prepare another couple of stories then go through the photos I took yesterday at Rowardennan.

I’m busy with some other stuff when Catriona rolls up  and the rain starts. Monsoon style.

We have coffee and a blether and Catriona goes on her way and we get ready to go to Helensburgh where we have a great night with our pals Alastair and Karen…spectacular food, enough drink to sink a ship and chat ’til after 3am…..
