Tomdoun Hotel's wild mushroom soup for lunch on Day 3 was out of this world. What was slightly disconcerting was the delightful Michael's response to my tentative enquiry as to whether he had received my food parcel..."Oh, was it yours? I ate it!" Not only did he produce it, he also provided free detailed maps of Glengarry Forest, to supplement our OS that afternoon.

The parting of the ways for Shirley and me was in mid-forest, and I decided to get slightly ahead of myself, and spend the night and a late-start morning in the Invergarry Hostel in the excellent care of Claire and her Mum, cleaning and drying everything possible.
