Wonderful though Scottish hotels in Arran, Islay, Applecross and Ullapool are, their only occasional internet, plus the lack of desk space, meant my laptop mostly stayed in its bag. Against that, the scenery was fantastic, and (unusually!) no rain meant we could see it in full glory, while bookshops and distilleries gave plenty of opportunities to pause. So my thanks to those of you who made entertaining appearances.
Words for next week (when I trust my attention will be better focussed) : delirious open song
