We're back! It took us only 8 hours and 45mins to drive from Ullapool to Oxford yesterday afternoon/evening/night with only three very short piss n petrol stops.
Didn't want to leave :-(
I made some good paintings, have sunburned skin and brought two giant Lewisian gneiss pebbles back with me from the indescribably wonderful Dalbeg beach. Didn't bring back one of Margaret's kitten in the end. We felt that travelling back with a tiny frightened kitten for that long would be cruel.
Quite apart from the stones *sigh*, the best thing was meeting everybody and spending a long time with them.
I am in awe of Margaret. Anyone who can engage a group of people in a howling gale on a bleak hilltop with horizontal rain lashing down gets my vote. Top woman!
Blogs, photos and paintings coming soon...
