My holiday plans for 2025? Scotland of course!

I recently happened upon this and found it beautiful and thought provoking. Would like to share it with you.

This is the first installment of Marta Pereira's blog on her walk along the Mary, Queen of Scots Way in May 2024. More to follow!

The meandering Dee

As you may have read in my last blog my wife passed away in the early spring of this year and it’s not difficult to imagine the impact that had on my life. I was shattered. Still am of course and it will take a very long time to recover and find my feet again in this new empty reality. At least 3 years “they” say! Even Scotland’s Finest fell by the wayside. I simply couldn’t be bothered less. Instead, funny enough, I embarked on a number of private ‘projects’, simply to ‘not think of my new situation’.

As the late great Patrick McGoohan put it so succinctly in the motion picture Braveheart: “The trouble with Scotland is that it’s so full of Scots”.
