When I was a child, Tobermory was famous for being the coolest of the Wombles. For my daughters, Tobermory is the fictional town of Balamory. I really must introduce them to Wombles…
Today was a trip to Tobermory, capital of Mull. It’s about a 90 minute drive each way so a once-a-holiday jaunt. DG has been asking to go to Balamory pretty much every single day since we arrived. She was expecting to meet some of the characters, which of course wasn’t going to happen as the series was recorded between 2002 and 2005, but I bought her a Balamory t-shirt to make up for it! MG has mostly grown out of Balamory now. I’ll never grow out of the Wombles… 
The same shot, two years earlier…
Not many pictures today because, in summary, we had lunch and wandered around some shops! So here are MG and DG looking gorgeous (in my completely unbiased opinion of course 
)
And finally, an attempt to show how clear the night sky is here. Far more awe-inspiring in real life, of course!
Mull Night Sky, August 2012 – click to enlarge (it’s not too big!), it’s worth it 
By the way, all the decent pictures from the holiday (or on this blog in general) are probably taken by Mr Chaos. If it has depth of field, it’s definitely him
Loved the star picture – how wonderful!
Thank-you! DH took it, but I shall take the credit
