The snow has not stopped falling and my tooth has not stopped nagging. For the last few days I've had a bit of a pain in my tooth but it was only when I chewed on it. Now it is starting to play up without the chewing. I might need a visit to the dreaded dentist.
According to the media here, this winter has been the longest for 50 years and is responsible for 5000 deaths. When we were in the UK in 2010, it was reported to be the coldest winter in 36 years so perhaps our visits are somewhat of a jinx.
We started the day in a very lazy way but I soon became galvanized into action by going on another long walk. I am dead scared of heights but I managed to overcome this as I stood on a high snowy ledge to grab a couple of shots from the top of the Falls of Pattack. The remainder of the clan either slept, watched the television or played computer games in the comfort of a warm house.
We will truly miss this place, me particularly, but it is time to keep moving. Next stop tomorrow is the very top of Scotland - John O' Groats.
