A view of Port Charlotte on the Rhinns of Islay on a moonlit November evening, seen from near the Rhinns Medical Centre. The Oa just visible on the left, if you look very closely you can just make out Ireland in the far distance across the North Channel.

Something a bit different, a memory from an unusual return journey from Islay at the start of December 2023. Driving on the M6 through Cumbria it started to snow quite heavily, after a treacherous drive I safely arrived at the service station hotel where I was staying for the night. After taking my luggage out of the car I couldn’t resist the pun and had to build a Mini snowman on my Mini Clubman. Hope you like it.
