Scotland Tour: Tuesday 15th June

In the morning most of the Rock team met at the West Beach car park in Lossiemouth to stroll along the beach to the lighthouse. It was a bit of a cool day, but it was lovely to be out and about knowing that we had a whole day without having to travel. The beach was beautiful, despite the constant roar of jet engines at RAF Lossiemouth.

After the walk (which involved the finding of two geocaches - Bill should be proud) we met at St. James' church for lunch and then a team meeting which was led by Simon. He took his team meeting from his own book - Crackpots. Go to http://www.sliceinnovations.com/ for more details.

We had a free afternoon where some of the team went shopping in the town and others wandered along the beach and then evening meals with our hosts.

The performance in the evening was quite exciting. The church was very full indeed, with a huge contingent travelling up from Aberlour specially for it. The dancers didn't have a huge amount of room, and this was compounded by a small boy, Gabriel, running up and down to his dad!

The atmosphere was absolutely wonderful, and the event was introduced and finished off by the minister, Graham. His finishing remarks were great - 'We're here again on Sunday morning at 1030...' And there was loads of time for chatter and bookstall selling over drinks and cakes afterwards.

A fantastic day.
