Today I drove to John O’Groats — the longest trip I’ve made on my own so far.
I worked in the Storehouse café there, looking out at the abandoned isle of Stroma past the Overlook Hotel (I don’t know what it’s actually called; I’ll always think of it as the hotel from The Shining).
I sat next to the fire”¦
“¦where I did some thinking and scheming.
Then I drove back to Wick and continued my work on a big Strategic Coach project, something I can’t finish in one go. I find those challenging — but it’s just The Ziegarnik Effect.
