Week One in Marvel Loch – Content and pleasantly surprised

August 22, 2016

It’s the end of my first week in Marvel Loch (The Town Midas Touched) and any pre-conceived doubt I had about coming here has been well and truly eradicated. In fact, I’ve quite enjoyed being out in the country away from the rat-race, cut off from society; and despite my tendencies to piss and moan … More Week One in Marvel Loch – Content and pleasantly surprised

Day Two in Marvel Loch: a daytrip to The Big Smoke and a hell of a lot of rain
