The title?

Well it wisnae ower the sea tae Skye.

Let me explain. We thought after last months disasters wi’ the bike and buggy, Dad needed a stress free holiday, so he booked us aw tickets tae Orkney.

Well.....

Aff we set, our first stop being in Carrbridge for the evening.

We drove tae a bonny secluded wooded area, surrounded by very old, very tall Scots Pines and got the van pitched and the beds made up.

After dinner, all fed and watered, we made our way into town tae the pub via a very dark winding path and had a fine evening especially Laoch of course as there were wimmin tae smooch wi’.

Then, strolling our way back home by torchlight, and looking forward to a quiet peaceful night under the trees and stars, we could hear a humming which turned intae a loud throb as we got nearer where the van was parked.
