After a delightful week of fishing, hiking and spending time with Tubs. He is in Scotland with his brothers in a hotel suite over looking the countryside. I wouldn't be surprised he departs from this sordid planet within a few days.
I still be there but I have work and need to fulfil a contract. One of the downfalls of being self-employed.
However I found this delightful book in a book shop before leaving Scotland. I have read it within a few hours.
