Feeling 'romantic' ....
20th
July 2020 (Monday) 09.30 .... It’s bonnie morning and there’s
loads
of people out enjoying it.... and available for conversations. I’ve never had it so good: and I bought two papers this morning. The Courier has a piece about ‘wild campers’
at Scottish beauty spots , including locally at Woodhaven Car Park and on the
East links, Elie. Right enough there
are a few camper vans and tents at Woodhaven, (I got a friendly wave from one van as I
passed by); I guess they are just people
enjoying a holiday at a bonnie place after a few stressful months. As long as they tidy up when they move on
(as I’m sure most of them will) they shouldn’t really be a problem. The problem is at the weekends when overcrowding
will and does occur.... and of course the few who treat all beauty spots as ‘rave
sites’ and leave rubbish all over the place.
Beautiful morrrrrrrrrrrrning .... |
I am in a happy and romantic mood this morning; I met Primrose at Chapel Green walking the
dog. Primrose normally goes down to the
harbour but it’s too busy for her just now .... even at the early morning time
Primrose goes out. We talked about how
lucky we are to live here.... and how it’s good to see the villages come alive
again, with people enjoying what we have all the year round. Hey I’d better have breakfast
.... I’m hungry.
The beach at 11.30. |
16.00 We celebrated Geoff’s birthday this morning
with morning coffee and cake at Myra’s;
the boy is ??? oops ?? years old today.... I think he said
97. No that’s wrong; I’m sure it was
77. I’d wandered along to Myra’s (and
back) by way of the bents (the bike battery was being charged) meeting, and
chatting to people on the way. Everybody
is good at keeping the two metre ‘rool’....so meeting people is pleasurable. We’ve had a couple of short sharp showers
so the run I had intended taking to Balcarres this afternoon is off until
tomorrow. I might get out later this
afternoon .... when the sky turns to a delicate shade if crystal ‘bloo’.
19.00 This has been a busy and enjoyable
day; by busy I mean mostly ‘playing’
though I did make a couple of phone calls, one of which involves having some of
the ‘Royal Blood’ taken tomorrow morning for my regular six monthly check
up; except this will be a nearly year because
the April one was cancelled (COVID-19 crisis).
I keep meaning to make an appointment to get have my haircut; I must remember to do that tomorrow.
