In nine weeks' time, we're going to Scotland!

On Friday 27 April, we'll be getting the sleepr from Euston to Glasgow, like this:

and then going onto Oban, also by train. Then it's onto the ferry to Mull:

where we pick up a hire car.

We're going to stop in a self-catering flat in Tobermory ("Balamory", for those of you with small children) for a week, and (among other things) take wildlife tours like this one:

Then it's on to Iona for three days:

and then back to the mainland, for three days in Oban:

While there, we hope to go here, familiar to many stranded Arthurians:

before we come back home by the same route we used to get up there.

Indeed - it is never a hardship.

Sometimes at home, I don't have enough organisation / energy / "get up and go" to photograph things - so, I want to put some more things up on eBay, and try a little macro project, and see what I can do with a long lens and our bid feeder. What I might do with the last of these is put up the tripod next Friday, and get out the camera and lens then; then it won't take as much work to get everything set up on the Sunday.

How are things with you at the moment, BTW? How are your arms etc?
