No Orange coverage

The title says it all, really.

Whilst I am in Tiree I have no mobile phone coverage, although I do have free wireless internet here at the delightful Glebe house. So I will be posting later tonight with loads of lovely pictures.

See ya later.

Hello to Coll

En route to Tiree, the ferry stops at Coll. Here we quietly sit and watch the sharks play violently in the bay whilst some of our passengers leave us and others join.

En route

Here we are aboard the 'Clansman' RORO ferry. It's been a wonderful ride so far, with amazing scenery as we sailed up between the island of Mull and the mainland.

As you can see, we're just arriving at Coll now. Our only stop before Tiree. It's just a lovely journey.

Beauty

Jason and myself are on our way to Tiree to do some photography for a web site. Just nearing Oban we encountered a sudden burst of extreme beauty. It was the end of an enjoyable but tiring day, and we slept soundly in our little single beds (NOT pushed together).

No time for breakfast - straight down to the ferryport at 6.30am...

(Sorry the picture did not upload for this. I will add it tonight from the comfort of my hotel room.)

Oh NO!

Is this a disaster in the making?

It's OK, folks, don't worry. All is well. Having served my initial 4 week foodless sentence I am now afforded a week of "greens and whites". This essentially means that I get to have some chicken or fish and some green salad for one meal a day, instead of a diet drink.

Next week I am back to the grind. How weak and loose my interpretation of these rules is able to get will be revealed on my trip to Tiree with Jason over the next few days. I promise to try quite hard to be fairly good'ish.

Tuesday is d-day again, strict Cambridge diet rules for another 4 weeks. I will stand firm. I promise.

In the meantime, I will try to establish an internet connection from HERE, and let you know how the trip is going. It's a long drive to Oban tomorrow, then a longish ferry out to Tiree first thing Saturday morning.

I'd be a stinky liar if I claimed not to be looking forward to it.

Cambois Beach

Been there twice now - and I like it more each time.
I should return when the light is better and capture these engaging "wickets".
