Ullingpool

"Then off to the monster"

I didn't even hear Marge and Phil get in last night, I was "Out like a Count", I did wake up nice and early and it looked like a nice day in Ullingpool.

I packed my own bag ready to get on the way, It was quite a struggle to get the zipper done up and I had to ask Marge for help.

I did not fancy any Sausages and Eggs this morning, I think I overdid it with the Clover yesterday and had to spend a long time in the baffroom this morning.
While the humans were noshing downstairs I had a go of my "Dot to Dot" book. I'm getting quite good at it and am on page three already. Phil laughed when I told him this.
I have no idea whats so funny though, Must ask Marge later.

Before we left Ullingpool Marge and Phil wanted to show me where the boats parked. This is the "Arbour" and there was a big boat parked at the side, must have a closer look.

Marge let out a yell when she saw the name on the Ship, Wow wee another "Babs".
Phil said I should ask for a look round but I was worried I might get see sick so I did not bother asking.

I saw this "See Eagle" hanging round, I wonder why he is so interested in the boat?

Another "See Eagle" was busy chomping into a dead fishy, Phil said it was frozen solid and thats why it was so hard to eat.
This was a silly bird though because Marge says everybody knows you are supposed defrost fish Ovenight in a refrigerator before eating.

There was this swimming pool full of Crabs The nice fishingmen from the boat had a big yellow pipe pouring water into the crab pool so they did not run out of water, that is nice of them isn't it?
Phil thinks they might be taking the Crabs to that quiet water place that we saw yesterday. I hope they don't take them to Downray instead because they might all turn Green and this many Green Crabs would scare all the humans walking their Cats on the beach!

When we were walking back to our car we saw this sign stuck on the front of another car "B4 EWE". I wonder if Marge would like a number like that on her "kitten car"

Luckily I was on the ball when we left Ullingpool, when Phil put where were going on the satterite machine it said go this way! I knew that was wrong because we should be going down the map not up.
Turns out there was two places with the same name in Scotrish and we were heading for the wrong one!

Now we were on our way properly to Inverness. I noticed some of the lads had turned out to wish me a safe journey. Thanks folks see Ewe all next time!

We stopped at a long Loch of water. Marge and Phil wanted to walk to the side of the beachy bit to throw scimmers.
I was a bit concerned because the floor was a bit squashy, Phil said it was like a "Bog" that made me giggle.
Marge was worried about Snakes so we chickened out and went back to the car.

At the end of the water there was this big building, Phil said it was a "Damn", that made me giggle too.

Forget the "Bogs" and "Damns", take a look at this flooer, its a "Yellowcup" my favourite.
I better not eat too many though I don't want a tummy like last night.

I was going to stretch my legs by walking across the Damn but Phil told me it was a Dangerous place and I could fall in and sink. Oh well I just had a good look before we left.

We had not got very far when Marge needed a wee stop (again).
We were all amazed when we found this place. Its got grazing space for me upstairs as well as Marge's room, Phil didn't need to go after he saw the sign!

I found this vege"table" that really looked like a table, I was not too keen to eat off it because Phil said it was a "Toads Tool" Urghh!

This was another brilliant place, full of rocks and gushing water and again we were the only people here.

The water was very noisy and very fast. I wondered if I could see any Fishys

I tried to get a better view then a strong gust of wind blew my hat clean off!

Oh no! I thought my hat was a complete gonner. I would never see it again.
Then Phil was amazing he leapt across the water and grabbed a long stick and fished my hat from the running water.
I was amazed at how brave Phil had been, he risked wet feet just to get my hat back!

Phil then wringed out my hat till it was dry and then helped me put it back on. I was so pleased I thought I had lost it.
I am so pleased I have come away with Phil and Marge they are great!

On the way back to the car I kept a tight hold on my hat, I did not want it to blow off again!

I can't remember coming this way, Oh I hope we are not lost
He He, only kidding this is the look up the river.

We stopped on the way to Lock Ness at a chip shop in a place that sounds like "Drumadropit" near Urquart Castle.
Phil said it was a real rip off because if cost as much as the Earth! Marge says the food was not very good either,
The view to Lock Ness castle was very good, It was a shame that it was so crowded.
There was hundreds of Hire cars and busses all filled with people who spoke different to Marge and Phil I could not understand them at all.
These people all seemed to talk louder than us as well! Phil said something that I can't repeat on this "Child friendly site" but it sounded like "blurry for ingers"
We went further round to find a more quiet bit.

We found this bit right by the water, we had some fun throwing skimmers and climbing on the rocks, I was a bit worried about the monster that lives on the Lock but Phil said it was OK

I was quite brave and went a long way out, Marge told me to be careful and said she thought she saw something in the water!

Ha Ha, Marge was just kidding me there is nothing to worry about, Phil said so!

Marge shouted that "Nessie" was right behind me!
Dear me she must think I "Came up the Clyde on a Banana boat" ha ha (I heard Phil say that)
Mind you I did hear a bit of a splash and a growl!

Ha ha, that had you all worried didn't it? I told you there was no such thing as a Nessie, Phil told me so!
He used the compyuter and pretended there was a monster behind me.
Don't worry it won't happen again here is a view of Lock Ness without any tricks, isn't it nice?
