Well we have survived two weeks of living in Barbara The Bongo, twenty four seven, and we still like each other and are speaking.   It must be love.    I adore this photo it looks like light is coming out of Bab’s elevated roof, she is shining from within.    

Thank you to my wonderful cousin Gordon for the loan of her, she is now a member of the family.     We managed to drive into the remotest spots to set camp for the night and luckily weren’t mauled by the midges!   

So whilst all of my London friends have been sweltering in the heatwave, bronzing themselves, I’ve been mainly a passenger driving around Scotland in the wind and rain wearing a jumper!    Now I have to say I’ve been a little relieved not to have to had to commute during the heatwave.   Has it finished?     Am I safe to come back South?
