so we had to make the trek down to inverness to have tadpoles hip scan done. why we couldnt get it done at caithness general i dont know, but we had to go to raigmore instead.
i had put a bunch of bookcrossing books in my car ready for this trip. but after an unsettled night from tadpole, i had only managed 2 hours sleep this morning, and i dragged myself out of bed looking like hell on earth with red puffy eyes and yawning nonstop. kaishowing did the driving while i sat and dozed in the back. tadpole decided to be as good as gold all day. but i was just to tired to have a mooch in inverness after the hospital appointment, so the bc books remain in my car.
the drive back home was horrendous, ive never been so petrified in my life. DRUTT will know what im on about. theres only one road north of inverness, so if the weather is bad enough..it means you are extremely fucked. its a very remote and somewhat daunting road. tonight we had fog on the road, very very very dense fog. so dense we could hardly see the truck infront of us, we had difficulties seeing the road markings. so being thats theres sheer cliffside drops on one side and on the other is soggy moorlands and its dense fog and lashing it down with rain, i never ever want to go through that again. i was nearly in tears having images of a bad road accident. it wasnt helpful to kaishowing either with the fact that the mint and chive plants i earlier collected from a freecycler, were strong smelling and were giving him a bad headache and making his eyes water.
