Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The SeaSide

Sunday 30th September

After several days of early starts and long drives today was a day for a rest.

It was first chance to see the house in daylight and discovered it is not as remote as we thought when drawing the curtains to see a caravan park and what classes as a main road this way.

The morning was spent taking photo’s from camera to the laptop and have a look through before a late lunch thanks to our Tesco’s shop in Dingwall.

After lunch we decided to try and find the way to the beach between showers.  Gavin looked up the path and putting on all our layers we set off.  As we walked down the road I notices a niggle of a sore throat – oh no!

The walk wasn’t too far, taking about 10 minutes.  It was very windy down on the beach and it wasn’t long before the rain started again.  It is a lovely sandy beach (called Farr Beach) and the waves were huge.

As the rain started to come down harder we headed back to the house, half way back the rain stopped and the sun came out!

Sunshine!

For dinner today being a Sunday I made a roast chicken dinner, which we ate while watching the F1 highlights.

By the time we went up to bed my throat was really sore and a cold was in bloom 🙁
