Sunday 24th October 2010
I awoke this morning to a heavy frost outside, and a red sky as the dawn broke (just before 8 a.m.), it was to be another beautiful day from the looks of it, I happily lay in bed, looking out the window at the view- not quite the same as home!
I was up by early morning, reading some of yesterdays papers, breakfasting, and then out by 10 a.m. ready for a walk to Ballachulish, 2 miles or so distant for 11 a.m. Mass at St Muns Church,http://www.rcdai.org.uk/pages/Parish-List.html it was freezing cold, but my brisk pace soon had me warmed up, in fact by the time I got there I was boiling, and very hot .
As seems to be usual for Scotland, the priest was obviously recently new to the Parish, coming from I suspect India, or even Australia ! and with his good humour the 1 1/4 hours mass didn’t seem that long !- you certainly get your money’s worth here !
I then returned to Glencoe village, for chocolate cake and hot chocolate with marshmallows and cream !at Crafts and thingshttp://www.craftsandthings.co.uk/, which I’d visited many times in the past, and then collecting a Sunday newspaper and returned to Wally…. to spend the rest of the day reading them !
It was a day to relax, before the long journey home tomorrow !…but, should I return, especially if the weather continues like this ?
