Name:
Location: Inverness, Scotland

I'm a Brit/Yank who has now settling back in Scotland with wife Tracy after living in New Zealand and traveling in Australia for a couple of years. Having contributed random thoughts on life in the Antipodes I now blog some impressions of returning to my native Scotland after 22 years away, and also document my marathon training to keep myself motivated. I post pictures at www.timcooke.com which also help to tell the story of our travels.

Easter

It is a big holiday here, as they get 4 days off and it obviously falls at the end of summer/ early autumn. It is an interesting combination of laws based on the religious nature of the weekend (no alcohol can be served Good Friday without buying food we discovered) and extreme commercialism with all kinds of end of season sales. I'm not sure how Easter Sunday will pan out. We are staying at home because Tracy works Friday & Monday but at least the holidays she works feature shorter hours and more pay.
