24 February to 3 March 1990 - A Week in Kinlochewe - Part 2

 
Monday 26 February (Dave)

Dave up at 6 for 'Homework'.

Fowl day - heavy wind - it was also blowing outside.
Late tea (7:15). Great indecision. Beinn Eighe obviously out. Lots of tea, trips to shop, and cogitation. Decide on coastal walk. Go to Poolewe for our circuit just like last time. (Not sure which trip this refers to - the diary may come to light in due course). Intermittent rain and hail and sun. Difficulties in crossing a stream. Laurie gets separated. Start walk at 12:00, finish at 3:00.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I think this was our route - 11 km with 150 metres ascent. 
 
Snow on the way home. We skid on slippery road. (I remember that - 'spin' would be a more accurate description!) Back for tea, reading and getting on each other's nerves. Chops for tea, and belated fruit and custard. (Dave was the 'fruit and custard' chef, when he felt like getting round to it.) Jigsaw completed.
 
 
Electricity runs out while Martin poses for photos in his trendy gear. Laurie resigns from work. (I don't think he ever worked again.) Dave conquers the Galaxy. (No doubt aided by all those phone calls.) John reads yet another page in his book. Martin won canasta with a final spurt.
