my piece of paradise

I travel all year, 79 flights between January and the end of July and this is a slack year. When it comes to holidays I don’t want to see an aircraft. Fortunately my in laws live in Scotland on the banks of a sea loch. Getting away from it with the family is just fantastic

A safe as houses bet with the children cost me £20 this year. After five years of only ever seeing Mackerel being caught I bet them £20 that they could not catch anything else. On the last cast of the holiday one of them landed a Pollock. On the positive note once it was gutted and baked with a small amount of butter it was very tasty!!!

The house is near HMNB Clyde, there is often something interesting going on I suppose I should be glad they only caught a Pollock.
