Well it's been an absolutely cracking week in Cromarty and I can honestly say I've fallen in love with the place.
Hobby wise I've not done much apart from sticking together some AWI Militia from Warlord. Nice figs which I will get round to undercoating in the future as my Russians await.
However just kicking around for a week, getting out in the car in the sun, top down, in September, (!), has been great. Down Loch Ness on the eastern side by Wade's road was particularly noteable - the man had an eye for scenic routes that's for sure - as was a trip up to Dornoch and our wander through the village here yesterday. Hugh Miller's cottage and the Court house are worth the time to visit. The latter's passion for geology and fossils (amongst other things) is interesting to ponder when you look across the firth to Nigg and Invergordon and see the drilling rigs stacked up. There's also something new on the quayside, a tidal turbine ready for installation.
Home via Cawdor, Grantown, Dufftown and Huntly. The sun's out, the "tap's aff".
