Lossiemouth Aug 08


Sun 3rd to Wed 13th for the annual camping holiday at Silver Sands, Covesea, Lossiemouth. The 2-3 mile long beach great for running but over the years I've noticed running on sand is very tiring and also suffered from sore quads the week after so now I take most runs easy with no real problems.

One lap every day or two and a doubler at the weekend, some hill reps and a tempo run thrown in for fun and each run followed with a swim / body surf in the waves.

Andrews birthday as usual so another camp birthday with party games....pass the parcel, statues etc until they reminded us they were 14 not 4!

Camp show also being disrupted as the children are "too old" and most slots now filled with adults.

Visit to Duffus Castle is a favourite, nice and peaceful and with enough features and info to give a good insight into how they lived, ok if you are the Lord!





Watched the Elgin / Dumbarton league match on Saturday, the Sons getting a draw for their travelling Apache supporters. Weather good with the usual Moray Firth dry/cloud free bubble giving great views of the meteor shower and no real wind for a change either.

Some more photos in the Galleria.
