The first weekend of July, Chris and I nipped across to Colonsay to stay with Jude & Hans who were there on holiday. Duncan, Caroline, Alastair & Alison were already on the island when we arrived.
Sadly, the weather had broken, and typical late summer we were wrapped up in waterproofs as the wind & rain came in fits and starts, but we didn't care, that didn't stop us from pottering about!
Each couple made a meal: Friday, Duncan & Caroline made chili beefburgers (Bar-B-Qued) with salad and bread, Saturday, Al & Alison made chicken curry with rice & pitta bread, On Sunday, Jude & Hans made lobster, lamb fillet, beetroot, potatoes & salad, and lots of wonderful nibble things during the day, e.g. garlic bread, pizza slices and oven baked Camembert. Chris & I made breakfast on Sat & Sun morning which seemed to take us forever to make! Eggs, bacon, mushrooms, sausages, black pudding, tomatoes, toast, tea and coffee.
We had not been to Colonsay for several years, and disappointingly nothing had changed.
