Day started with breakfast at 7.00, and the first meal prepared by Princess our resident 'diamond' chef and her team. And what a chef. Full english, porridge, yoghurt, fruit , etc. By far the best meal, and the start of good things to come.
Our two intrepid furniture delivery drivers, by this time had managed to deliver a three piece sofa and a footstool, and got on the road and missed the whole event..... in order to get on ahead
At this point our intrepid leader after months of planning, was able to brief the team of the nearest petrol station location which was ASDA. This clear direction then resulted in Toby & Phil driving an MPV around the car park three times for some unknown reason.
Finally found a fuel station and managed to clog up the whole station & town (a real traffic jam as no-one could get into the fuel station off of the road, by virtue of the fact that there appeared to be only one card to pay with, but all was sorted in the end
Having finally left the town we left and progressed in a roundabout route to Helmsdale! (picking up Gav from inverness on the way).
Spirits were high on the way with good weather, being enjoyed by all and a set of fantastic views as we got further north
Arrived at Helmsdale to yet another wonderful meal prepared by our no 1 chef and crew of spaghetti bolognese & sweet & sour.
Perperations for the day ahead at John o'Groats ensued, and then finally to bed!
