Slipway

We get the 9:30 ferry back to Tayinloan. At Clachan we collect the keys to Bobby's house to sort out the remnants of Anne's belongings. It's a year since she died and Bobby is now in a psychiatric hospital in Lochgilphead, so it's a sad affair.

We're joined by Louise and Robin, which lightens the atmosphere a bit. At least there were no arguments about who gets what, but there's something pathetic about the whole affair. A life reduced to a few trinkets and a house full of unwanted domestic accessories.

We meet Anne's friend, Monica, for lunch in Tarbert. It starts raining and we head for home.
