Five years ago, today, we had to get to Southend by a charter bus. Our landing in Gigha the night before had put us two days ahead of schedule.Arriving in Southend, we grabbed lunch and then made our way down to the point to see the Columba footprints. A year later I would see Columba footprints atop of Dunadd in Argyll which had been part of the Kingdom of Dalraida. We donned our robes for a photo opportunity.
Heading back to town we were part of the procession to the church. Several congregations had come to participate. We had an active part in the service. Afterwards, we enjoyed a reception. Afterwards we went to the Parish fellowship hall to spend the night. As we slept the storm came and disaster struck our curragh in Gigha.
