Arrived safely at The Ceilidh Place ,Ullapool

We have made it to Ullapool for the gig tonight, the journey up was very scenic with a clear sky and the low winter light making the trees glow as if they were on fire.


The concert in Tobermory last night was, as always a delight. It really took a mighty effort to get to the gig. We changed our original plans of flying to Inverness to pick up our car and travel onwards to Mull. Instead, in order to make the Oban ferry we had to fly from Fair Isle-Shetland-Glasgow , picked up a hire car and drive like mad things to make the 6 o`clock ferry to Mull. Flybe lost my luggage!! (Boo hoo!)

We were picked up by the lovely Gordon Maclean on the Mull side and we arrived to gig with 1/2 an hour to go before the concert started. The gig went well and I was surprised and delighted to see Norman Chalmers among the audience.

Conrad, Gareth and myself went down to the Mishnish for a much deserved late night dram and ended up back at Josie Jumps yellow house for a good nights sleep!!

Thanks to Gordon Maclean for believing that we would get there...........till da moarn........C x
