Here is Janet walking through the mist and drizzle…

The north coast 500 is a motor tourist route around the top of Scotland. It’s the new big thing around here. It must have brought a degree of economic regeneration. But I don’t know what to think about it. It’s not popular with everyone living here. Some resent the disruption, all the new traffic squeezed into roads that weren’t designed for it, the people who drive too slow and the people who drive too fast. The top road was moderately busy today with a number of tourists. And the back road that Janet used later seemed to have some very fast traffic and heavy lorries displaced from the top road.

We too are tourists, albeit slow ones.
