Be Verwy Verwy Quiet We're Hunting Deer



Thursday....

Ahhh...the sport of kings!
"Common.." Says Dougie..".I'll Take you out to the Queens Summer residence and I Guarantee you'll see deer.." Wow Miky was very exited (I was a little :-)) )...and of course it was perfect timing, being the coldest windiest wetest day to day. Driving, driving driving through the heather to.....Loch Muik (said Loch MIK)...It's a sign!...we'll see deer for certain!.......IT WAS FREEZING...Looking..." Lets take a walk to the Loch.." says Dougie..(Bissy was smart and settled in out of the wind)...Looking, Looking, Looking...... I'm begining to think that there is no such thing as wild deer!......So after a quick huddle and a snap shot, we're off to lunch and "The Prince Charles" .... and home again..

After a close encounter with a red Squirel, we were off home.... not a dear to be seen.

Friday...

Today we're of to see Lindsey 'ald school mate,from 25 years before, at her rambling property..."Poor us.." I lamented.... "Lindsey's uncle guaranteed deer ...none to be seen". "We always have deer at our property" says Avril.... Much cheering...

We Scoffed down lunch and went down to spot deer!!..Looking, Looking, Looking.....All dressed for the part.... THERE ARE NO DEER IN SCOTLAND....NONE!.....Hugs and tears (mainly due to lack of deer)...tomorrow Lindsey favorite ocean side fun Park!

Sunday....

Wooho0...now thats what I'm talkin' about!....Lindsey thought it looked a lot bigger (30 years ago)... These people are mad.....Lett me paint the scene..... It's 3 deg's and we're water log riding ...what a top way to remember Scotland...who cares for castles and deer...... we got saturated by the north see riding plastic logs in tubes!!!!... Tomorrow.... Hongkong!!

To all, Thankyou all for a the best time in the second best country in the world!!
