The Cruel Sea
Several bookings were made with Calmac and various hotels over the winter to enable us to get to Eigg and actually start work on the house. Twice we were thwarted by rough seas and cancelled ferries. On another occasion we couldn't meet up in Dalwhinnie as planned because Do missed the last rail connection following a fatal incident on the line south of Edinburgh. Work commitments, ferry timetables and bad weather put paid to any hopes we had of making it before Easter 2014. We had to content ourselves with daydreaming and looking at the few photos we had.
Meanwhile I busied myself on ebay and other online stores perusing, considering and buying an arsenal of tools and equipment I'd always wanted... and now might end up actually using. Do lost herself in a world of decor and furnishings, frustrated at the amount of time it will take before she can action some amazing ideas she's had.
