Actually, I took something like 1293 pictures + videos :oops: :lol:

Great pictures Cam, lots of really good shots. I really like the one at twighlight beside the Loch.

Suzanne wrote me a book for Christmas using blurb which recorded the journey

It's an online service so you can design and make your own books.

It started off as a surprise, but I know about it now :roll:

Blurb is a really good tool, and I think it's perfect for this sort of thing. Well done.

Yes, we've only recently found out about it and I'm looking forward to a christmas read.

The quality of the book is very good too.

Maybe a sequel next year? :wink:

Again, well done.

Thanks, but all praise should go to Mrs E and the cast, i.e. scenery, cars, drivers, navigators, hosts, hostelries etc!

It is a great tool, with loads of potential. I'm not sure what next year's book would be called "Return to Orkney", "Son of LEO" or "Not again Dad, this time only if I control the stereo!"
