Fun in the highlands.

"Stop it. Stop it." Cried Barbara as the tears of laughter rolled down her cheeks.

 
"Thausage curry for thix. Thatth what I'll do. Yeth. Thausage curry for thix."

This statement, delivered by yours truly, came after downing one large Whisky and while inappropriately wielding a wooden spatula. Barbara and I were in a similar childish but merry state of mind. We were trying desperately but without success, to bring some seriousness to the task in hand, the unexpected agreement, by myself I have to add, to provide the main course of a progressive meal for the remaining motorhomers from the weekend rally we had been enjoying.

Barbara, brave but foolish girl, had agreed to accompany me. I had picked her up from her beautiful country cottage near St Andrews in the 'East Neuk of Fife'. We knew each other from our respective past working lives and like me, Barbara is only recently embarked on an adventurous journey. She has moved from city living in Glasgow to rural living in a small but busy farming village. A big change of lifestyle.

This was of course a brand new part of the Sadie, Tanya and Steve journey. How were we going to manage and accommodate a female passenger? I need not have worried. Sadie's  double bed and en suite bathroom gave ample privacy for her ladyship, whom, I have to add, has taken to all the compromises of motorhome living like a duck to water. The overcab drop down bed has so far provided very comfy and roomy sleeping for me.

Scotland with warm sunny weather in August and September is simply stunning. So it is no surprise that here we are 9 days later at Roshvin on the West coast still together and having enjoyed another good meal and stunning sunset. Barbara, much to my surprise, has not thrown a wobbly or panic attack when wildcamp spots such as forest tracks, mountain tops or beach sites with 'No Overnight Camping' have been thrown at her. In fact she has relished them. Plus, and this is the really good bit, she does the washing up. Y'know sumptin? I could actually get to like this!!!
