DG's Visits Week 12/13



Monday morning meant a very early start to fly from Inverness to Stornoway where we were met by President Bob who very kindly left us to catch up with much needed sleep in the afternoon before taking us out for a superb meal along with his wife Janette and Club Secretary Kenneth, preceded by drinks with them, Kenneth's wife Sandra and SVP Donald. The following morning was gainfully occupied with a tour and briefing on Stornoway with President Bob, before we headed off to meet the rest of the Club members. This is yet another Club whose activities are vital to the local community and whose fund raising belies their smaller numbers of members. It was a great pleasure to visit Lewis again and enjoy their magnificent scenery and equally impresssive food. I could do serious damage to my waistline there, so perhaps it was just as well that we had to set off back to Inverness in the afternoon. However, the promise of a warm Western Isles welcome will soon draw us back again.
