After a weekend spent in a pub carpark meeting up with friends we started to head south.
It had been a very wet and windy weekend but about 50 or so of us crammed into the pub and had a good time. Travelling back down to the Borders I kept my camera handy and soon realised that we were following a couple that we knew. You could tell when the rider was chatting to her husband in the sidecar over the intercom the movements of her head .
It gave me chance to play with the camera settings and capture the occasional bridge.
Our last three destinations are all places used as stop off points over the years. First up was Killin so I could do a full wash and clean out the van a bit after the last two or three weeks. We were heading for the caravan club site as I knew that it had laundry facilities, a Co-op nearby for food and a couple of cafes on the high street.
misty start next morning but the sun soon burnt it off.
I love these reflections, they get even more interesting when you turn the photo around .
This sign on the campsite made me laugh.
After a couple of nights, a restock of clean clothes and food we were back on the road again heading back into England.
Our next stop was Barnard Castle, the town getting its name from the castle which is still fairly impressive and offers views over the town. ( which I failed to get a pic of !! )
The last stop was Bridlington for six nights, totally relaxing, walking round the harbour and trips to Flamborough and North landing.

Bridlington looking very quiet now the tourists have gone home, to be honest I quite like it like this.
