Just South of La Rochelle, not much better here 17-19 degs 10/10 cloud, winds forecast to hit 55mph gusts this afternoon. Seen very little sun since 1st September, but plenty of rain, some of it biblical.
At least it's proved one thing, my 6 year old air awning is still 100% watertight

Well done That Man.
I sent it up North, mind you it was only a day so dont know where the other two days came from.
The Loch looks lovely though, sure you weren't dreaming about the rain.
Perhaps why I haven't been, I cant stand Whisky, love the haggis though!
Don't mind the whisky, but would never consider haggis as apparently it contains offal.
If it was Worcester Uni that is where I did my degree. We are just down the road from where you are staying and luckily no hailstones etc , just rain!Currently staying at the Hadley Bowling Inn near Worcester as our son has just graduated from University with a First👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I’m always thinking that our daughter is analysing us from her professional side. Dad you should take up dancing. Dad take the dog to coffee shops. Too many Turtle mats in the kitchen. Label your boxes of stuff in the garage, Apple tags can be useful for older folks etc, etc. But we are the easy part compared to her “ service users” and their families in the community.
It was Worcester University.
We are now back at home, having stopped in Pershore and Evesham on the way back.
Following some research, I can confirm that the cheese and ham half baguette at the old School cafe in Evesham is very tasty!

Sheep's heart, liver, and lungs, also known as the "pluck"
Beef suet , barley, actually a very healthy mesl compared to Frankenstein chicken nuggets . As kids Mum gave us stuffed braised lamb hearts once a month. Wonderful 👍
There is no way I would touch anything with that sort of offal in it. It doesn't sound very appealing. When we were kids, our grandparents consider tripe a treat. Just thinking of tripe makes my stomach turn!
Love haggis and buy it whenever available especially for Burns Night. Growing up sheep’s brains on toast, tripe, kidneys and hearts cooked in the pressure cooker. We even had nice curry that was a result of my father serving in India for five years in WW2
In Oban an American lady ask the waiter what Haggis, Tatties and Neeps were. He explained that Tatties were mashed potatoes. I don’t like potatoes she said. Well Neeps are mashed swedes. I don’t like swedes either she said. Then you”ll no be liking the haggis ma’am was his reply.

Haggis, food of the gods. As already mentioned made with offal, barley etc, lovely on hot buttered toast. On a par with black pudding. Think if you look to closely at the ingredients of a lot of foods you wouldn't eat them. P.S. Lidls haggis is excellent 👌
At least you know the ingredients in haggis and don’t need a chemistry degree to fathom out a long list that you get in some processed foods.
And devilled Sweetbreads.
I bought a Haggis filled "sausage roll" at Euston Station about a month ago, from the Scottish food stall outside. Lamb pies . Beef pies, lovely.
Being a vegetarian I wouldn't even consider Haggis but one Burns night I did try a vegetarian Haggis.
Rather like the bottom of a Hamster's cage wrapped in edible cling film. Mind you I've never tried to eat the bottom of Hamster's cage but I have a good imagination.
