We are still in Scotland and in the Orkneys. We were about to take a small ferry across to the island in the background. Small jetty is out of the picture to the left. I’m not sure if it was this ferry crossing or another where we encountered French Driver. An elderly chap with two female companions and a beat up old French vehicle. Despite his advancing

I’m not sure if it was this ferry crossing or another where we encountered French Driver. An elderly chap with two female companions and a beat up old French vehicle. Despite his advancing years he was not desperately confident in his driving, but perhaps because of his advancing years, could not care less if he bumped the odd car nearby or shot backwards to his own and everyone else’s surprise. We encountered him on several ferry crossings and his car was more and more battered at each one where we met. Our own mini bus guide sensibly made sure he parked well away from him. His female companions seemed oblivious to the damage he was doing to both his car and France’s reputation in driving skills. I suspect they just did not like to mention it.

Back to the drawing, I’m hoping the print will convey the peace and quiet of the place and perhaps I can do that with the addition of colour.
