Due North

I did indeed wake at 3am and was on the road before 4.
Packed lunch eaten by 6am.
Although the roads weren't too busy I didn't make very good progress (I blame the new anti speed measures on the A9) so had a mad dash around Tesco at Wick for essentials and was the last car to get on the ferry. Phew.
Brought the calm sensible dog with me for company, hoping for a few lazy days .........
Then walked into a disaster :(
