not such a silent witness

After not posting for a few days I would like to assure you that the team are still alive and we have not spent any time in a and e.  The lack of updates is due to my inability to connect to hot point things until now.  The lack of punctuation today is due to me writing on a kindle.

So what have they been up to?  On the route to Breamar they met a security guard who informed them they could not walk their intended route as they were filming silent witness.  Of course this went down like a lead balloon and the security guard got a flea in his ear and the route was not diverted!

There were also more encounters with the wildlife of Scotland.  Frogs were caught and lizards inspected.  They have also challenged Jock on his road building skills and are claiming Jock`s road does not meet in the middle.  I don`t think ordinance survey will pay much attention to their protests.

Meanwhile back at the support camp monster munch has been terrorising ducks (and wearing missy v out), mini munch has been flirting with all and sundry (a small mention needs to be made about his tumble out of the van when I forgot he was in the tailgate space, he`s fine I think I was more upset).  Missy v and I have been boosting the local economy at wild thistle and the breamar gallery (links to follow) and enjoying the tasty lunches at Taste.  Many thanks to the caravan club for their discount at the camp site and to the invercauld hotel for their hospitality and support.

After saying goodbye to the cousins the trio set off on their long leg and first overnight stop.  Mr s was dressed in a cow onesie (as mentioned to me on many occasions by other campers) and it was raining.
I can`t report more on their exploits as they have come back, had tea and gone to bed.  We put the camp down, ate cake, drove a very long way, put the camp up again (in the rain) , monster munch may have just as well rolled in a puddle of mud looking at the state of him, ate cake and slept.  Whilst wRiting for the intrepid trio to return we visited Kingussie wildlife park, ate cake, saw tiger cubs, got up close with a bison and made boil in the bag rice in a kettle. Missy v also found out 3 year olds Don`t do neat when it comes to arts and crafts.

It would be great if you would like to donate to Macmillan cancer support by texting LJTH58 to70070 you will donate £5.
