Bigman, Big Plans, Big Washout

Since Bigman started his own consultancy company, the banking industry has not celebrated one of its many holidays ......... until today! So it was his plan to make sure he enjoyed the day off which would be a non earning day!

The plan was to rise early and make for Killin and climb over the Ben Lawyers road and drop down to Glen Lyon. A fine coffee shop at the junction was the target for elevenses. And then whizz up to the dam and climb up to the crest of the hill for a picnic lunch overlooking Loch Tay.

The afternoon would be rounded off with a zoom down the other side and back to Killin. This would provide good climbing experiece on the mountain bike.

The plan was pure genius, or at least it would have been but for the precipitation which promised to stay heavy in the west all day! And so a great plan became a damp squib.

Instead, he dealt with mundate administration issues before heading over to Edinburgh to the gym for a couple of hours finishing off with a fine sauna and steam room.

After conversing with an Indian call centre trying to sort out internet access for a couple of hours the session followed by relaxation was welcome. Roll on fee earning work tomorrow!
