After 2 months of using an Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S3) as my work device I’ve also made the switch to Android with my personal phone, a HTC One. I think the HTC One will resolve the issues I had with the S3, namely the camera quality, the low quality feel and it’s poor SD card usage.

For our last day in Scotland before driving home we headed south for a change to the town of Oban via a church and a castle, well it is me a Louise after all!
