Right, here’s some photos from our travels in Scotland on the weekend. Friday night we drove up, leaving Watford at 4:30pm and arriving at our B&B, near Glasgow, just after 1am. Saturday morning we met with John Hendry at 9am and had a nice, enlightening talk about the wedding day and what needs to happen when. It’ll be a 3pm ceremony now, if not earlier. After that we went for a drive and eventually ended up in Oban, on the West coast of Scotland. After a time wandering around and dinner at a Mexican restaurant we made our way back to Tambowie Farm for a very good nights sleep. Sunday involved shopping in Glasgow and seeing the Matrix with a visit to a castle in the evening. Monday we drove back home, stopping to visit a couple of places in the Lake District (Brougham Castle and Castlerigg Stone Circle) before continuing and getting back to London at around 8pm.

A couple of photos from the Peter Gabriel concert we went too last night.

Peter sang the whole time inside the Zorb. During the chorus of the song he would bounce the ball up and down to the beat, a sight to behold.

The last song, a rendition of Father, Son from the Ovo album.

A busy weekend coming up. Jenny fly’s in on Sunday morning and Mandy will be meeting her somewhere in London. Mandy and Daniel will be house-sitting for us on the weekend, which means that Jenny will be able to stay as well. We’re going to be in Scotland for the weekend, leaving straight after work on Friday and arriving in Glasgow around midnight. We’re going up as we are meeting our Wedding Photographer on Saturday morning at 9am. After that we’ve got the weekend to ourselves, so I guess we’ll have a couple of days driving around Scotland.

We’ve also got a Peter Gabriel concert on Thursday night and we have to go see the new Matrix movie at some point.
