Having problems updating the blog

17 May 2023 | Loch aline

Hopefully in the next few days this will be sorted, either the gremlins will disappear and/or the operator will graduate to competent!
Awoke in loch aline with a plan to leave around 1pm (high tide), however, sitting at the butty van enjoying the most tastiest bacon butty with brown sauce I have ever had to the sight of several boats leaving the loch! Mentioning this to the skipper and seeing the tide flowing out (it's always a good idea to go with the flow), we returned to the boat and departed.
Before we left while we were enjoying our butties a van unceremoniously arrived in front of our picnic table and several people jumped out and started setting up cameras (picture), a German gentleman then asked us if we minded being in the shot, being shy and retiring type we asked for makeup and costume changes (joking), apparently they were making a film about whiskey, so if you are ever in a position where you are sitting in a cinema watching a German film about whiskey, look out for me and Phil grinning innately ruining the whole thing.
