so, after a sleepless night because it was blowing a hoolie and raining, we packed up a soaking awning and van, kissed goodbye to the reid's who were off to gairloch and headed to beauly for bella.

it was ace to see everyone and camp in a straw covered field sheltered by the trees. beth was happy to see ronan and head off to see the darkness. after such peace and quiet of the past week, it was weird to be suddenly surrounded by so many folk and lots of noise.

after a jaunt round bella, we popped into the chapel on the way back to the van. weirdly I don't remember being in there before in the 12 years we've been going to bella...beefy and john were suitably blasphemous while we were there...
