Road
Eve enjoying the road
A bit like this man who arrived at the Seil harbour at Easdale in his yellow and white RIB from Jura which he partially owns. I fully expected PM Cameron to disembark from the RIB but instead it disgorged a rabble of Barbour/ tweed clad beings be-topped with deer-stalkers and the women carrying toy-dogs don't you know. Doug, for it was he who was driving the water-borne bus parked the RIB out round the corner and the beings tramped off weighed down by their importance and large binoculars. Only to return a few moments later.
"Doug"
"Doug" the man seemingly in charge shouted to the boat-driver.
"Doug, you pillock. You've landed us on the wrong island"
And indeed he had. They re-embarked and tootled off to Easdale and the Puffer pub for luncheon. But it has to be said, not before offering Eve and myself a lift over there. We declined with thanks and took the council run boat a few moments later. The food at the Puffer was excellent BTW.

'weighed down by their importance'. What a wonderful image. Plagiarism here I come.
