It was raining and windy this morning so it was a good excuse, on a Sunday morning to lay in with coffee and a video. But you cannot waste the whole day even if it is raining every fifteen minutes.
I needed a gas canister (I could not get one yesterday in Edinburgh) so I went to Halfords in Galashiels to get one, taking the scenic route. The photo is from the tea stop on the way back.
This afternoon and this evening more rain showers and more videos.
To avoid the Newcastle A1 roadworks I used the A68 today – with a lunchtime stop in Jedburgh.
I managed to get to Scotch Corner with the MX-5 top down before some light rain forced me to pull over and put the roof up. However after leaving Jedburgh it was down again.

I got to the campsite by mid-afternoon and there was no more rain but I was glad I packed the quilted fleece liner for my M65 jacket as it was cool sitting out having my tea. For tonight I have my Helly Hansen base layer, a fleece liner and my down sleeping bag. I am not expecting to get cold.

Our ten days at the Camping and Caravan Club site at Dingwall came to an today with an early start and a really good sunrise.
Once everything was packed in the MX-5 there was time for one more mug of tea.
Back in the office on Tuesday.

Breakfast today, fresh coffee, Polish black currant jam and peanut butter sandwiches – separately not mixed!
It has been raining most of the night here at Kelvedon Hatch. I was lucky last night I decided to get in to my tent and watch a video on my iPad so I was settled in before the rain started – if I had stayed in the car I would have got wet.
So this morning it it breakfast in the tent, which is – whilst I write this – filled with the smell of fresh coffee. Who cares about a bit of rain.
