Very little change in this SSC post, but good to update nonetheless.
As for my HIVE savings update:
On Wednesday the 1st of May I had 214.789 HP and 22.557 HIVE. Now, my wallet sits at: 243.838 HP and 17.567 HIVE. (The latter sum dropped as I decided to Power Up for the first time and invested 5.000 HIVE.)
And my primary and secondary goals...
| Objective | Project | Goal | 04.24 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | HBD | 100 | 62.692 |
| Secondary | EDSD | 100 | 6.000 |
Very little change, all round. Still, progress is progress.
In other news, last month's "splash" account - which I've renamed "adventures" in YNAB were put towards my escape into the Ring of Steel. If you'd like some hot, albeit misty, tips on the hike do read my blogpost (linked).
And although I'd intended to salvage the rest of my "splash" fund, my mother (who lives in New Zealand) has booked flights out to join me mid-June!! 🌞
She requested I put together a "brief itinerary" - which has become anything but. I've excitedly planned a rather sporadic trip through the Outer Hebrides (inspired by @hoosie's posts) - which, if my calculations are correct, will deplete my adventure pot. But that's fine. I have't seen mum in person since December 2022.
So I'm more than content to sit tight until she comes.
Plenty of free sunshine and good roads to explore on two wheels until then.
Plus there's the half-marathon, a-looming. Oee. So, plenty of road that I should be exploring on two legs, too.
Ah, I'm so happy.
Hope everyone's been making the most of this spectacular Northern Light-infused sunshine!

Thanks @hoosie 💙 Of course! I'd love some advice...
Firstly - the plan is to visit Mull for the day, from Oban, so if you have any recommendations for sites, please list them. Tobermony, Lochbuie and MacKinnon's Cave are on my list. As for the northern islands - I'm planning on hiring a car and driving through, so have booked the ferry from Mallaig to Lochboisdale. Is this an easy journey? Is there anything I should be aware of - delays or so? How busy is it in South Uist? We get there quite late and I've heard restaurants are sparse. Are there any good walks you'd recommend? We won't be staying in the southern part for too long, as I couldn't find much to do asides catching the RIBs from Eriskay to St. Kilda - but these were all booked out. What's it like in North Uist? Any recommendations there?
The plan is to drive through the islands, so we'll catch the interislander (Berneray to Leverburgh). Again, any tips? Concluding the trip a few days later with a ferry from Stornoway to Ullapool on the mainland. I've looked into things to do Harris/Lewis - desperate to find an Otter Tour, but they appear to be fully booked out. So are there any places we should visit where you might see an otter or two? Puffins from the mainland? We'll be doing plenty of walks and visiting the Calanais standing stones, of course. Would love to see Blackhouse Village, too. But please do provide any other suggestions!
