"There is no avoidance in delay." ~Aeschylus
I'm off on another adventure and I haven't even finished recounting the last one. For some reason I have serious resistance to finishing the account. I'm not sure why.
And since I can't seem to move on until I finish telling this story, I just kept avoiding my blog. NOT what I want to do. And now I have a new story to tell so I must finish...
The final morning he had plenty to say about how I stayed in my room all the previous evening.
North Uist and South Uist are connected by a causeway so we toured North but stayed on South.
We stayed at a small B&B on South Uist run by the most offensive man I have ever met. We call to ask if it is all right to check in early and he said it was fine but when we got there he was on the phone talking about these guest he had, Americans who arrived EARLY.
He asked us how we heard about him. He had plenty to say about Americans and Trip Advisor, conveniently disregarding the large Trip Advisor plaque displayed prominently in his front window!
Dinner was a farce with this man waxing offensive on politics and religion then got personal when he insisted I state my opinion on internet censoring which of course was opposite to his. I thought I was going to have to leave the table or get us thrown out when I told him what he could do with his opinions.
We were scheduled to stay two nights.
The final morning he had plenty to say about how I stayed in my room all the previous evening.
Ferry to Barra and the wonderful Castlebay Hotel. Such a difference.
We had a delicious Fisherman's Pie in the hotel restaurant. (I really regret not asking for the recipe!). And a tour of Kidimul Castle in the morning before catching the ferry back to the mainland.
