We’re off work next week, and we’ve just made a hotel booking at the Auld Kirk Hotel in Ballater for next Wednesday. We’ve been past the hotel any number of times on our way through Ballater, and have always thought that we ought to try a stay there some time. On one of trips through Scotland we even popped in and tried to get a room there, but they were fully booked. So we’re definitely looking forward to finally getting to stay there next week.
We’ll be bringing Grandma McLean with us, in the hope that she’ll help us win a car again. (It’ll also help Alex to not wreck her house completely as he runs around with his boundless energy.)
