#72 - NC500 Home Stretch: Part II

Posted by BlueMonday1984 - 8 days ago


Went up to Ardnamurchan today, and went to see both the Ardnamurchan Lighthouse and the Ardnamurchan Distillery. Whiskey's not my thing, but I really hope they become more well-known - they're pretty damn good.


(Incidentally, I have been to Ardnamurchan and the Lighthouse beforehand. I'm not entirely sure when I went, but I do know it was before I started using Newgrounds.)


I've also got a good idea how much longer I'm stuck on this trip for:

  • Worst-case scenario, I'm stuck for 3-4 more days - Mum's plan was for this to drag out to Tuesday/Wednesday.
  • Best-case scenario, I'm going home tomorrow - seems Mum might just be fresh out of cash due to an unintentional double-payment that hasn't been cleared up and my relentless spending, including on the Roy Bridge Hotel I'm currently staying at. Does mean I'm losing out on a massive Highland Cow plush I saw in Fort William, but I'll happily pass it up as long as I make it back to the safety and comfort of my home.
  • Middling-case scenario, I'm off home on Monday - the mechanics open back up on Monday, and I get the distinct feeling Mum's torn bumper is gonna break the bank. Mum did also experience some odd acceleration issues when driving, and she did also note a wire coming out of the car - one which she suspected could have affected the brakes.

It also feels kinda redundant to mention, but I also haven't lost a single day of deposits during this entire trip. That arguably wouldn't have been real important to mention under most circumstances, but with how generally hellish this trip has been and the almost unholy lucky streak I feel I've been on, it feels like a fucking miracle.


See y'all tomorrow - if Lady Luck smiles on me one more time, I'm home free.
