The Long Way Home

Today we left the city at 1330h to go home to the Glen as we were going to visit Graham's mum this entailed a visit to Glasgow then on to the Glen. This is the long way home, however we found Graham's mum in quite good spirits and spent an hour with her, we left her around 1545h and headed N/W.
Up quite early phoned the dentist and managed to get Graham an appointment with John G for 1130h. Had our early cuppa, then I wasted a precious thirty minutes attempting to contact the Mastercard centre, I just wanted to pay up my account, could I get through you are joking! It appears it is impossible to speak to anyone who works in the financial arena these days! just keep talking to the machine voice on the telephone 'Blade Runner' here we come. Had breakfast then G left for the dentist, I hoovered then had a leisurely shower and washed my hair.
Finally ready to lock up the house, post a cheque to settle the said account and pick up the sandwiches from Cafe Citron for the journey.
I then walked Ruaridh down to the bank and Waitrose as we had to do a shop prior to heading north.
After we had visited Graham's mum we had a good journey, stopping on Loch Lomond side to have our sandwich. It was lovely and we had a walk on a beach at the lochside, back in the car we left for Glen Coe. Amazing light all the way there with big rain clouds then lots of brilliant sunshine. Stopped at Glen Coe at Ruaridh's favorite place to have a walk, there eating the grass was a lovely deer, back for the lead and carried on our walk. The moontains in Glen Coe are huge, thought of the wee fellow chasing the deer up one and us chasing him-no way!
Arrived back in the Glen at 2015h, house very warm.
Graham made a lovely dinner of pasta and courgettes in a cream cheese sauce with salad and bread-delicious.
Tired and so to bed. Goodnight.
