It is July?

Just back from a brisk sailing weekend with Hamish and Julie. We
headed up the River to Loch Goil and picked up one of the visitor
moorings at Loch Goilhead, then ashore for an excellent meal in the
Hotel and the scenery out the window is fantastic, very fjord like.
Overnight, I was woken by the sound of the rain battering off the
deckhead which was to set the theme for Sunday. The return sail was
quite exciting with the odd gust up to 35 knots and lumpy seas from
the west once we were past Wemyss Bay. You'll note that we are all
togged up with full waterproofs over fleece with gloves, I had
forgotten how painful rain can be on the bare face. Well it is July
in Scotland.
