A really good day in Perthshire

I'm sitting in the Prince of India Tandoori Reataurant in Pitlochry waiting for a takeaway curry for me and my colleague Jennifer. We have had a great walk to Loch Ordie with a D of E group and the weather was warm and dry all day. I couldn't wait to show off my one of my favourite walking places to Jennifer, and gratifyingly she loved it! Two D of E expeditions back to back means four days of walking in a row which has to be good!

Meanwhile I have heard from Ally and Cat who are in Lithuania. They are having a great time and when they arrived in Kaunis they found that there is a festival so they went straight out to enjoy the music and the street performers. Davie is chilling out at home, delighted that his exams are over at last, and Jamie's viva is tomorrow - he has worked so hard for this and I hope with all my heart that it goes well.
