Plans for the Big Trip out are firmly in place.
Collect car from local Car Hire place (asked for XC90, so fingers crossed).
Collect sprog from school and drive to Lands End.
Stay overnight at hotel and wake up in time for sunrise.
Get in car (hopefully XC90, keeping thread On T) and drive John O Groats.
Watch sunset at John O Groats.
Sleep well in hotel !!
Next morning drove a few miles to Dunnet Head to watch the birds flying backwards (if you've been, you'll understand).
Set off back home, stopping off at 2 or 3 distilleries on the way.
Get home with big smile on face, bearing gifts from Cornwall and Scotland.
Return hire car the next day, get back into my V90 and return to reality.
The cars booked, the hotels booked and the route is in place -- all I need to do is keep my fingers crossed that the traffice fairies are kind and that Wee Jimmy Krankie has lifted the restrictions on entering Scotland by the end of June.
