So we decided to get away for a few days. Finally got medical help for the sore swollen foot on Saturday and by Monday I was able to hobble a wee bit better So I thought, let's have a few days away. Got on the phone and booked a glamping pod for a few days and we arrived here yesterday. We are in a glamping pod until Saturday and the camping in the tent until Monday morning Yay for us. Thanks for all the messages asking how we are given me not being here. Appreciate all the kind thoughts So here is a picture of our home for a few days

Does that make you Pod People? Because if it does and you are planning on taking over the Earth you can have the damn thing as far as I am concerned.

Pod people - I could live in this thing. It's so well insulate it doesn't need heating even in winter. I don't want to take over.the.Earth Just one bit to be buried in

@MarieCoyle To be fair there are.state.of.the.art showers, toilets and a washing machine etc 35 feet away I imagine if they plumbed in bathrooms in the pods the size of the pods would need to be extended and the cost may be prohibitive. Also on the sun zero winter when the sites was shut down pipes would freeze and burst. I've stayed in some hotels in America that weren't as clean and comfy as this pod. I think also our prices may only seem a bit higher as our currency is worth a bit more than the dollar. I recall when I could get $2.42 dollars for every one of my £

@JimBo452020 That would be a cheap hotel price here, really cheap. But for a little room with no bathroom of your own, it does seem rather pricey. But then I am not used to your prices vs. ours here in the US, either. The main thing is that you enjoy your time there.

I am glad you went to get some help with your foot. I hope it continues to feel better. ( I am honestly rather surprised you actually did that!) Have a nice time glamping. What a cute tiny little place! I have never seen a little hut/house built in that shape around here anywhere.

I maybe exaggerated it being better. I was in so much bloody pain I had to get help. The pod isn't as tiny as it looks It's bigger on the inside, trust me.

This has been an exercise in mind over matter Carol. The pain is still quite bad. My mobility reduced somewhat. But the weather forecast was too good not to have a wee break. I have booked us another 4 nights. My contribution to the economy of a place called Nairn is considerable already. Yvonne couldn't believe it when I told her how much this was all costing.
