Applecross Seafood & music festival weekend.
people come from far n wide for this event , so the least i could do was sell them some arty crafty stuff, been busy all week making costume jewellery & framing pictures etc.
so there we were 1000ft up the road, yes that famous road which always seems to be an adventure of some sorts, when my gear stick went all wobbly...

don't worry girls ! i can't control the car, its only this metal thing underneath has sheared away.. That was the gear linkage. luckily there was still a phone signal where we were, and i managed to freewheel the car & turn her into a passing place, and then we waited for rescue.

ever resourceful we set up for a days trading... not many punters around.
prehaps the midges ate them all ?
then James ( dudley ) & his wife came & stayed later, which was lovely. They've gone on a seal trip today, & its breezy so not so many midges.

At least you got a nice day for it, eh?

Did you tell James 'Hello' from me?

VickyS said...

why richmond, i did indeed tell james your hellos.

and nice is somewhat relative to how strongly the wind blows the midges away, as you can see from the rosie-dog photo.

are you scared yet ?

Richmond A Clements said...

Never worry about them midges. Don't you know they're just being friendly?

Ed said...

Enough of the pleasantries - did you ask James where the hell my comics are?!

VickyS said...

nope sorry ed. did you ask me to ask james about your comics ?

Ed said...

That's not the point, damnitt!

VickyS said...

midges !? friendly ? so smothering & bloodsucking & biting & filling with nasty poisons is friendly is it ?

why mr clements i need to keep my eye on you.

and ed i'm very sorry about that, my psi brain has been somewhat distracted oo the last couple of weeks or so.

I hope that it's your eerie transubstantial psychic brain-powers that are currently causing me to see double, as it's making this incredibly hard to read.

Perhaps I need some glasses...
