Photo Diary - week ending September 24th 2006
(NOTE - click on any image to see the high-resolution version)
She Who Must Be Obeyed is in Scotland this week - visiting her mum, coming
back on Wed. after a very
hectic schedule of business meetings in London. Subaru went to the garage
for 30,000 service, plus bodywork repairs
after a couple of encounters with 'seven-minute drivers'*.
For some reason, on Monday Iain got it into his head that he 'had' to take
his nap in the guest bedroom instead
of his own room:
Tuesday found me visiting the Westchester Medical Center at Valhalla, where
I was surprised to see an unusual
visitor to the car park:
Wednesday saw Iain dragging me to the station to watch trains (yes trains
not girls, honest!):
On Thursday I went looking for the increasingly-legendary P&W stone
train - it never showed up, but a
nice old Metro-North Geep did:
Sunday... I left. Off to Bolongo Bay, in the USVI, for a couple of days
R & R :-)
* 'seven-minute drivers'; in self-defence, whilst driving in New York,
I regularly remind myself that all those drivers
around me passed a NY driving test, which lasts seven minutes and has something
like a 98% pass rate. Back in the UK,
driving tests last up to an hour, and less than 50% pass first time...
