So we packed our bags, one ukulele and a spinning wheel and took the scenic route through the Yorkshire Dales, into Scotland and turned left heading towards PortPatrick. The reason for heading there? the man himself had seen it on Facebook!!
A pretty little place with a harbour and a very good pub for food , The Crown which we would both recommend.
The weather was a little damp and on the first night we only just made it back to the B&B before it started to rain heavily.
We took a drive down to Logan Fish Pond the next day as we had visited very briefly a few years ago as part of the Round Britain Rally and we spent nearly three hours talking to the lovely Ruth about the fish and eventually Ian gave her a ukulele lesson in return.
An evening stroll back at Portpatrick found the Lifeboat in the Harbour.

Do you know we have moved to Scotland ? And we only live 5/10 minutes from Portpatrick ....
If only I'd have known I would have come and seen you, or you could have come and stopped here, and hubby could have practiced his uke
Wyesue
Looks like heaven!
I didn't realised that you had moved!We will be back in the area at some pont as we have friends in Ayr so may have to look you up :-) x Portpatrick was a lovely place inspite of the very wet weather for the couple of days when we were there.
