Good morning from Jen and Albert

[GrannyJen]

We lived in Scotland for a year but did not make it as far north as you have!

So what do people in Tongue do for amusement?

There was a big hat on the table in the local pub and it had keys in it ....

Like most rural communities, farming based,

Really must be desperately tough way to earn a living in that inhospitable terrain.

Made me think of the Clearances, very sad,

For small communities up there toughing it out Westminster politics often seems a long way a way!

They up for independence?

 

[GrannyJen]

Good evening, finally got moving again this afternoon after the drama of two ripped tyres ..

and now here

For small communities up there toughing it out Westminster politics often seems a long way a way!

They up for independence?

Very. Who could blame them. If I lived there then I would want independence, first from Westminster and then from Holyrood.

Well, sadly, on my way home now.

Currently stopping over on a Britstop in my spiritual home county of Durham.

For all the drama and heart-stopping moments it's been a brilliant trip and yet again just made me even more of a Cali fan.

for all of you debating whether to get a cali or not,

Get one.

You won't regret it.

Wish you would stop posting Jen, you're making me jealous
