COUNTRY DIARY Where colour comes into its own


tion is that you can. if necessary, change your plan and later your route, or, if desired, linger a few days at any given point. Now this is all very fine under normal circumstances, but when you are in Scotland you soon discover you are in no ordinary place, indeed, as we were -soon to dis­ cover not only is the place becom­ ing more and more popular, but It is also having an extended season.

Our first task was to go to our Hotel in George Street (this by the way was the only booking we had made for the entire trip) have a wash to freshen up, and then a short walk in the town. Oban, on such an evening, looks remarkably fresh, MacCaig's Tower dominat­ ing the scene from above the town, and everywhere the clean, bright atmosphere indicating close proximity to the Highlands. It is a handsome, very pleasant place, reminiscent, they say of something Mediterranean, which favourably impressed Boswell, and later Sir Walter Scott. From this bay—The charing Cross of the Highlands—you have access to a host of places and many of the Inner and Outer Hebrides. There is no untidiness about the town which one usually asso­ ciates with shipping.

SAYING IT IN WRITING


many people that you might conclude that o n ly specially gifted individuals c a n write clearly. This is not necessarily so. All you have to do is to apply basic rules of good writing. Here are several important ones from the July Reader's Digest,

To the more adventurous, these boats, so spick and span in their bright new paint, are a gladden­ ing' and inviting, sight. For. especially where boys arc con­ cerned, boats have always a great attraction. These minia­ ture self - contained homes, whether in harbour or at sea. continue to fascinate even when all desires of adventure and thrills are passed. We stood for a while, with others, just watch­ ing and speculating. Then, soon one, and then another, untied and quietly left the pier for some far-off fishing ground so that people like 11s may enjoy the the fruits of the sea.

noticed the lowering sun and soon decided prospects for a typical sunset, famous in these parts, were extremely good. Oban, as many photographers will know, is famed for glorious sunsets. This as you can imagine was an opportunity not to be missed, for above all things in nature, a colourful sunset is one of her most spectacular expres­ sions of glory. This is where colour comes into its own. For whoever heard of a simset in monochrome? And so, I hurried along to the North Pier where the intermediary landscape offer­ ed a pleasing foreground. I took two shots in the hope that the glorious tones of red both in sky and' bay would be well repro­ duced. Sunsets are not very difficult subjects once you begin to. experiment, yet most people

Pier prompted nte on seeing one of the captains of MacBrayne’s steamers, to inquire regarding the sailing accommodation on the morrow. You see, it had been decided in unanimous agreement that we should spend some time on the Isle of Mull. Although I have visited the island on numerous occasions and know the south and extreme north very well, I have never had the opportunity of exploring all the places in between. Travel facili­ ties have, during my previous visits, been very limited and now with a car at my disposal, entire new territory lay before me.

inquiry was far from encourag­ ing. Indeed we left the pier and walked to the Hotel wondering if it would be at all possible to get on the following day’s boat. There were four sailings by the Loch Mor and Loch Nevis. They could however, take only 14 or 15 cars per day. and were fully booked. Frankly we were horri­ fied, but we were given some scanty hope if we came down to the pier on the following morn­ ing. Whatever the situation will be like in July and August, good­ ness only knows. For, as we saw it, the busy season was at hand and no facilities to cope with the visitors or cars. Unfortunately, the proposed car ferry boat “ St. Columba” is not yet in service. The launching for some reason is delayed.
