Gingham, Bowlers and Holidays

We are driving up to the Isle of Islay (where I grew up) next week for a bit of a break from the city, and to visit my mother, sister and hilariously noisy cat. I have lots of good blog plans for the trip, which I'm quite excited about. I hope they work out. There should be lots of good photographs at any rate. The weather is going to be awful though if the forecast is to be believed, so maybe I'll be heading for autumn slightly earlier than anticipated...
