OK, so this is a late posting for yesterday when we left
Whitehills at 0815 and motored the remaining length of the Moray Firth to reach
Inverness around 0715. England v Switzerland was due to start at
0745 so that was quite convenient! The journey to Inverness
revealed some of the beauty of the coastline in this part of the country –
green hills, cliffs, sand coves and beaches, and lots of little villages that
nestle on the coastline. The weather proved to be very variable; it started off
cloudy but by lunchtime summer had arrived and we all put on sun cream and took
off layers of clothing. By late afternoon the sun had gone and misty clouds
replaced it so we all put on more layers of clothing once more! Diane and
Madeline arrived to join the crew later in the evening.
Joke:
At an art auction in Edinburgh, Scotland, a wealthy American lost his
wallet containing £20,000 [$45,000]. He announced to the gathering
that that he would give a reward of £200 to the person who found it.
From
the back of the hall a Scottish voice shouted, 'I'll give £250.'
