Portree is the capital of Skye and is about 27 miles from where I now live.  Since my arrival last week I have been gradually sorting and unpacking my things. Yesterday was the turn of the kitchen.  The kitchen here was already equipped (albeit very sparsely) prior to me arriving with the contents of my kitchen from down South. I had a fun game of ‘which is the best ladle’, ‘which is the best potato masher’ and ‘which is the best salt and pepper pot’.  Decisions made, I headed off to Portree with bags full of kitchen stuff for the Crossroads Charity Shop (Crossroads is a charity for Carers).
