I am visiting for a few days to write a couple of assignments in my final module of the masters before the dissertation. All I need is broadband and a big monitor, both of which are available here. Roy is away on ringing duties and visiting his sister, so I am also keeping Cecilia company.
Tragically the weather is pretty dreich, although this has the obvious benefit that it makes it less arduous to be indoors studying. It would actually be pretty sad if the weather was glorious and I had to stay inside.
I arrived on Sunday, and met the Lodges who were visiting for a couple of nights. Cecilia and I went for a walk around the Policies and investigated boar and badger (or fox) signs.
Update: Some photos of wildlife signs from Ursula
here.
I also managed to successfully use a hose to siphon off most of the water from the boat. A very satisfying appliance of science.
On Monday I managed to write most of my first assignment (quantity, not quality necessarily!) and went for a short walk to the bridge over the Garry, and also met Iain Lothian at Poulary.
Today I went for a walk in the morning (not raining!) and took some more photos.
