Lovely day for it

I find myself in Aberdeen, though “Why?” is a relevant question as there is no Spirit of Islay on the horizon (due to several crewmembers falling ill they had to break the race). Oh well. We are enjoying the city, and will make our way in a somewhat sedate pace down to Prestwick on Tuesday for Linda’s flight home. After that I have days and days to spend before I have to catch a plane from Stansted on Sunday (which I’ve just booked – no boat obviously means no sailing for me and so a plane ticket seemed like a good idea).

We’ve had an absolutely cracking time in Ireland – I will try to collect my wits (which are, quite frankly, a bit scattered at the moment) and give you a short run-down before we leave this B&B tomorrow (it has free internet access, can you believe it?).
