I woke up early so came up at 6:30 to get some water and put my week's supply of clothes in the washer before the midges take up residence.
I found Val in the kitchen preparing to make bread with the dough we made last night, yesterday morning she was in the garden running the planting group.
An hour later 14 bread tins were in the oven, washing out on the line and off to make porridge before waking up the young Ewan.
Back at 9am to pick up my bread for a breakfast treat.
I'm turning into Felicity Kendal.
I went back to the Erraid community after a day visit years ago, this time staying for a fortnight - here is my diary of the visit.

Feeling the knead to know
Val is showing me how she makes a large quantity of bread for the community.
Tonight it is preparing the yeast and flour mix, with the kneading and baking tomorrow morning.
Interesting to see and be part of bread making before I toast it for my poached eggs or Erraid jam.
Apparently Orlando is a baker and turns out amazing creations, there seems to be no end to his skills.
