Yesterday we mainly spent the day travelling so Murphy only had time to disappear into the darkness after a quick walk once we arrived and reappear with a deer leg (I knew it!) Panic over what to do with it once he'd discarded it at the door (well, a leg's a leg but not to be compared with dinner), and we still haven't decided - though I noticed it seems to have ended up in the recycling bin at the moment so someone may get a nasty fright soon.
Today we headed off for a geology-based walk; unfortunately (?) the paths were shut for maintenance so we headed across the road and went for a different marathon instead. What a shame, I was looking forward to learning all about Moine Thrusts!! Luckily after 2 hours' walking, a lot of photos and an awesome picnic lunch (prepared by guess who?) R accepted my judgement that we shouldn't take the dogs up a particularly steep bit of mountain (I suspect they'd have got to the top way before us!) so we headed back down, and reached the road about 4pm, with R having only cricked his ankle about 3 times and slipped once - he has such delicate ankles! Luckily mine are much sturdier and get me up and down hills without mishap.
