Wet and miserable for the second day in a row. Our German guests decided to stay only the one night, but serious language difficulties meant we couldn't find out much more. As I'm typing this, it is brightening up a little, but the rain continues unabated.
The bad weather caused a serious road accident in Aberdeenshire, when a car left the road, somersaulted down an embankment and landed next to a railway line. A few moments later, a passing train dealt the vehicle a glancing blow. The driver was pronounced dead at the scene.
On a more positive note, the Cairngorm mountains could see the development of the Scottish version of the Eden Project in Cornwall. In the latter version, large domes house plants in carefully controlled conditions. More details here.
