Well, there was I with all my stargazing equipment ready ( Thanks Kate and Wayne, for my new telescope), I was in the perfect location, miles from anywhere at Bruce’s Stone car park, near Glentrool http://www.thebuchanglentrool.co.uk/history.html (more stories of whinging Scots !), and it was so black, I literally couldn’t see my hand in front of my face…neither could I see any stars !
All night, I was looking out of Wallys windows,trying to see if the clouds had lifted…no chance, eventually the rain arrived, and that was it !
So, up very early, and off home, tracking through a wet Dumfries and Galloway, towards that great Country – England ! … and as I passed the border – the sun came out, and shone on me all the way home ! (via Sainsbury’s !)..seems like a different world…
So now, unpacking, opening my mail, and Birthday cards and presents – thanks everyone !
I’ve travelled 2,752 miles on my Scottish ‘leg’, with the additional 984 miles on my combined Devon/Swindon/Wales trip immediately before giving a total of 3,736 miles on my Autumn trip…Wow !
Hope you enjoyed it.will this be the end of travel for 2011…??
Thanks for your company and comments everyone, all 3,150 of you !(still counting)….so, how long will the hair and facial growth last..??
Having Fun
