<br />
I'm off for the weekend. A long overdue one with plenty of coffee with M. One of the other Ms said: what is it you want to do before you're off? <a href="http://gesah.blogspot.com/2009/10/taking-precedence.html">I had been to the sea</a>, I wanted a gig at Barrowlands - unfortunately missed Camera Obscura last night (sorry! M - did not manage to track a ticket down), and I wanted Loch Rannoch, the Moors and Schihallion. That's for this weekend now. With a forecast of continuous rain. So it'll be M in the car with coffee and cigarette <a href="http://gesah.blogspot.com/2008/03/ive-been-practising.html">while I do my best tourist impressio</a>n of running around through the rain and the wind, with a bit of paper and a watersoluble graphite.<br />
<br />
The last time I saw Schihallion in the distance, it was at K's birthday party in Glen Coe - a long time ago. But she and I talked about it on Wednesday. So many good things...<br />
<br />
I did a sketch at that weekend. It's three years old and in the first sketchbook. I think this weekend's sketches will look rather different. Interesting.<br />
