It's about that time again, the tour for this year, entitles "Nae Ord'inary Tour" & featuring the another work of creative genius on the sticker will set sail from Thurrock this coming Friday the 19th. All the usual rites & ceremonies have been observed, car's have been repaired in the nick of time, sacrifices have been made to the gods of weather, packing, repacking & re-repacking of barely enough clothes has happened (I had to buy more pants!) & I think everything is about ready. Only three will be meeting at Thurrock this time round, the other three including myself will go direct to the breakfast stop as Thurrock is in the wrong direction. After that we're heading north to the land of the Celt & the Pict. North & further north until there's no more north to be had without getting wet.
This year we have a couple of activities planned, one evening we'll be escorted around the fleshpots of Inverness by a friend who lives locally (OK, we're just going out for tea) & one of the routes is quite short as there is a distillery offering tours within walking distance of our hotel in Miur Of Ord (the name of which, if you think deeply enough accounts for a couple of the references on the sticker). Then we'll head south again wondering if that was really 10 days because it felt like about three.
