Day (12)

This is the official rest day, and as can be seen fromthe plethora of blogs and limericks, the team are feeling somewhat recovered and refreshed. Essential last minute provisions and clothing, pemmican and winter survival suits, were  purchased, to permit our continued journey through a scottish summer. In case anyone doubts our veracity as to the strengthof the winds we have met, the picture of the felled tree in the middle of Stirling provides evidence for our stories. Even the locals, those we understand, seem to think that it is not a good summer. You should have been here in April they keep saying, as if that makes it better. Shopping done the sights of Stirling were taken in, with great viewsfrom the castle and some interesting landmarks shown in the photographs. Tommorrow we start again, with the climb back onto the moors featured in the pics. As the banner says praying for better weather.
