The now-traditional Sibster Forest al fresco breakfast

We had one other van for company overnight plus a Land Rover and tent. Nell enjoyed her walk around the long loop and then we drove off to Duncansby Head.

The roads in this corner of Scotland are little better in quality but are at least a little more accommodating than those in the North West. We had a very pleasant and leisurely journey in the morning sunshine.

Somewhat taken aback on arriving at Duncansby to find half a dozen motorhomes already here.

It was pleasing to see that the old orange HIC “No Overnight Parking” signs have gone.

We parked next to another MH and its driver came over to greet us and to admire Hank. They are on their way to Orkney tomorrow and quizzed us about our plans. I was swiftly recognised as a fellow knitter by his wife, who had clocked my socks. We swapped Ravelry IDs.

It is perfect weather for the location, which has been very busy all day. We took Nell over to look at the sea stacks before lunch, since when we have sat in the front seats, gazing across the Firth at Orkney. Our last view of home until next April!

I am really struggling with the technology to hand. I hate working with images on such a tiny screen/desktop area.

We would love to hear from you, please leave a reply
