Hoverfly

Dale  FaceTimed me tonight - she is on ger NC500 trip.  She went for a walk on Durness beach while her friend was reading in the tent…) and she has confirmed the midges are not too bad – but they've had heavy rain and it has been windy!  Thankfully, not all the time but she says the midges haven’t been bad when the sun does come out!  I think her friend has not been prepared for a Scottish summer despite having lived in Aberdeen for 3 years...  She’s from Luxembourg originally and now lives in London but she is not prepared for this trip.  She has camped and hiked in warm countries…  When Dale dropped Satan off on Saturday, she took away one of my waterproof jackets for her as the waterproof her friend had brought was a flimsy thing that probably wasn’t very waterproof!  And Dale informed me that her friend's walking boots are not waterproof.  Dale took her old ones with her in case they were needed (and they are!)…  And she has a summer sleeping bag so has been cold at night… And has done nothing but moan about the weather…  Dale did tell her to be prepared for a Scottish summer!


I was at the chiropractor this morning and boy she has worked on me...  I am sore all over!!!
