Hi Audrey - I spotted earlier that you were thinking of Chanonry and I sighed with a touch of envy!! Enjoy it - hope the dolphins are active! Udale Bay strikes me as an interesting place too ...... Hope you get thro the shopping as fast as poss and then off out for better things! New camera is marvellous - I think I'm in love!!! The weather only came blue here and still very windy gone dinnertime so I couldn't justify going any distance - instead I dashed to the Flash ten mins away and went in Bunting HIde - the feeding station - as usual the sunlight doesn't reach - so I went up to ISO 1600 f5.6 and an 80th of less and it gave results. The 7D wouldn't do that. Really once again I should have taken the big f2.8 400 but its too heavy for me! Yesterday I used the 500 at Martin Mere and today I tried the f5.6 400 with reasonable results for the deep gloom in there!! Have a lovely weekend both of you - the hol is coming nearer at an un-nerving rate of speed! - Yes I was quite worried when I didn't get an answer then decided I'd got the dates wrong and you were in the isles while we were in the 'gorms'! I kept watching the forecast and thinking 'oh NO' as I know only too well what its like out there in a gale - just be glad you were in a building as the campervan is the worst place when it gets like that!!! I came back last evening from The Wab Priory Meet in Leics - was a grand do - got pics of grass snake and thoroughly enjoyed the banter! I still haven't caught up with the images from Scotland yet so better have another go for an hour before an early night tonight to make up for some of the sleep deprivation!!!!
- Tried phoning several times and texting all to no avail? Perhaps you've changed your number and I still had the old one? Couldn't remember your address - I never kept a note of it when I sent you stuff so couldn't call ........ a pity - I was looking forward to meeting up tho had no intention of giving you a virus to spoil your hols! You will be 'out there now' - the weather has been poor out in the isles if the Scottish forecasts have been anything to go by - hope they are wrong - you will be there now and we are back home safe and sound having left Nethy at 8am this morning. Speak on here perhaps when you return - tho by the time you are coming back I will be getting ready to go!!! Its all go - at last this is what retirement is meant to be about!!!! Have a lovely hol ..........
- I think we're bringing the rain with us - apologies for that - well I know rain is now needed but I could have managed another dry fortnight!! I'm feeling rough again this evening - I will give you a bell but it may be wise to postpone a meet in case I'm still not virus free - it seems when I go in the supermarket I can hear lots of folks coughing and spluttering - why we should be getting bugs in decent weather I don't know? Anyhow its been a long day so its bed now!! Speak to you soon!
- Just come back to this - apologies I'm losing the plot - I know I sent you the info cos I scanned stuff and made a little booklet sort of ......... anyhow was just going to mail you and say we will be up in the Cairngorms this coming Sat - yea ha! Tho I'm not impressed with myself at the min - I've caught Gracie's infection - she might not think so but I do - so last time you had a cold and now I'm full of it - I hope I can shake it off for weekend ...........
- Hi Audry - I keep trying to be on here - I can't manage without my fix! ~Sorry to hear about the cold - but delighted to hear about the proposed Uist visit - send me a pm or better still an email and tell me where and when - or have you got in the same cottage as me but at a different time? Do tell I'm all agog!! Hope the 'ermine' appears for you! Now lets see if I can send this and get back on to read and comment elsewhere or whether I stomp off to bed in high dudgeon!!!!
- How are you doing Audry? I was thinking of you earlier when I donned my Yaktrax to go shopping in Wigan (a thin nasty crust of tamped down ice is all we have at the mo but its coming for us they say) I've watched the weather earlier and reports on minus temps and views up the main street in Aviemore ........... I know in some ways you are used to having snow - well 'up the hill' but perhaps not in the street and at lower levels and certainly not this early in the season! Hope you are both well and keeping warm. Pauline xx

Happy birthday!!! hope it's been a good one. -
