Ferry back to Mallaig

On Monday it was time to pack up and head home after our amazing weekend in Knoydart. Davie and Chanel had taken the early ferry because of their long drive to Manchester, and the rest of us took the 11 a.m. ferry back to Mallaig. It was quite busy and the sea was a bit choppy as we rounded the point. We were sitting out on deck and I was glad that I was wearing my warm padded coat (the one that James gave me for changing under while wild swimming) - I was the cosiest person on the boat! We all said our farewells and set off home. We expected Loch Lomondside to be busy on Easter Monday and indeed it was, delaying us by about forty minutes. But we had no choice but to be patient and soon we were reunited with the kitties, who were very pleased to see us. Later we had a curry with Ally and Cat which was delicious. 

This evening James gave Ally and Cat a lift to the airport while I went to a Book Club evening at St Leonard’s Library. It was really good; we had a good look at the books, got cheese, biscuits, drinks and cakes, and took part in a quiz which our book club won! This pleased us mightily, especially since a lady from one of the other book clubs had earlier told us to be quiet!
