Arrived back here &
stayed with the Wilkies again. We had a nice dinner, lots of talk & bed.
On Sunday Connie and I made
the dinner while the boys loafed. Later we took a run in the car & did all
the harbors. Crail is lovely, a spot for artists. Also visited a remodeled 300
year old house. Very nice, but $15,000 is far too much. No reservations came
for our return trip so we’ll try again in the AM.
MONDAY
AUGUST 21, 1961 - GLASGOW, SCOTLAND
Drove from Tayport to see
about bookings. Dundee didn’t come up with anything. Cunard lines didn’t either,
so Chas. chanced a smaller line called Donaldson & we just got in on a cancellation.
We sail 9/12/61, arrive on the 20th in Montreal. There will only be
48 passengers on board ship. This should prove cozy. Went back to Tayport &
I must add here it poured most of the day. We’ll leave in the AM for the south
again to see Trudy & George.
TUESDAY
AUGUST 22, 1961 - TAYPORT, SCOTLAND & LONDON,ENGLAND
Left Tayport after
breakfast & headed south on A1. Needless to add it rained
most of the way. Rooms were hard to find but before leaving Scotland we drove
to Edinburgh & got our mail. We hit the jackpot, 2 from Bill & 2 from
Carole & 1 from Chuck & 0 from Val ($45.00 from Bill & $10.00 from
Chuck to spend). We drove on until we hit London where we went to a hotel. Called on George Price, he was out but came
over later. Really a nice guy, we had some beer & lots of hot air, etc.
