Coll- the true meaning of windswept

Day 1 and 2 on Coll

After leaving Glasgow at 2am on Saturday morning with flute and harp in tow, we finally arrived in Coll at 9am shortly followed by our first coaching session with Pippa (despite barely being able to function). After a quick cat nap and fuelled by delicious cake and tea, we finished the day with 2 more sessions, a long walk accompanied by midges and a well needed sleep.

Waking up fresh and ready to go, day 2 consisted of a lot of productive work and fantastic coaching from both Pippa and Lis. We are feeling excited for the week ahead and enjoying our journey so far here on Coll!

 

We thank you for your beaches and scary one track roads,

Weather report

Welcome to our first update from Coll!

Here are some stats from our first two days on this stunning and windy Scottish island:

Number of coachings: 2

Number of slices of cake eaten: 8

Number of cups of coffee: 10

Number of glasses of wine consumed: 4

Number of hours of playing: 322

We admit that the number of glasses of wine drunk is a little on the disappointing side, so we promise to catch up 😉

On a more serious note it’s been fewer than two days and we have literally almost been blown away by what a fantastic opportunity it is to be here.
