After a good night's sleep, got up fairly early and went for a walk. Decided (naughtily!) to call in to MacDonald's and have breakfast there. No different to an Aussie one except that the coffee was appalling!! Drove with Sam and Nicole to Stratford ... Read more >

Woke up this morning to a rather overcast day, with a bit of rain! Left Jean and Chris's with Sam to go for our tour of Prodrive and Aston Martin, where Sam works. It was a lovely drive, very green and soft. Had a personal tour which was very interesting;... Read more >

So we headed up to Arbroath today - it wasn't far away at all and was well worth the trip.  15-20mins away from Dundee by train; it's a reasonably sized town on the East coast of Scotland below Aberdeen. EmJ and I hit the town around about 11:30am ... Read more >
