    Raining at Ayr, we have visited castles, houses, and had many walks during our stay and managed a walk into the town today during a brief respite.

    All I can do now is observe others on the site through our rainy window Laughing

    Hi Dave, I don’t know if you have been yet but just a few miles south of Ayr is a lovely fishing village called Dunure. It is very picturesque with castle ruins and some cottages have been converted into an Inn and a cafe that allows dogs. Enjoy.Wink

    Thank you 'nevers', we visited Culzean castle a few days back and drove past Dunure Sad Tomorrow is supposedly a nice sunny day and we have
    a coastal walk planned, guess what we plan to take in Dunure and its castle ruins. Good to know there's a pit stop that will allow Cassie also Smile

    Wow what a scorcher, took 2 1/2 hours to walk 4 miles!Enjoyed the chilled beer afterwards.

    Husky - I suspect Ian didn't call in as he is banking on getting duty free Bonios whilst he is abroad.

    It has been unfeasibly hot here in N France today......really too hot.

    After lunch we had a walk around the site, had a play on the swings Laughing and a look at the pool (wish I'd brought my cossy!)

    Spent the rest of the day trying to find some shade.

    Duty free bonios......mmmm must have a look for some tomorrow Smile

    We drove to Manchester for the Champions League game v BMG. Called off, quite rightly, 20 mins before KO, torrential rain. Rescheduled for tomorrow night, hopefully it will have stopped raining. But in Manchester, you never know.

    Francis, we've tickets for the Celtic v City game, should be good.

    Lovely sunny day, drove across to Bridlington,  had a walk from North beach to South beach. Stopped on the way for fish and chips (well you have to) back at North beach had sit on the sands for an hour, then went up the coast to Flamborough head, had a nice
    ice cream there. All in all a pleasant day out, just what the doctor ordered. Hope everyone else was enjoying the good weather.

    We visited Bridlington when we were staying at West Ayton CC at easter. It was a nice day out we also got fish and chips from one of the beach front chip shops. Also we had a nice drink at the pub overlooking the sea very nice

    A foggy day here in N.Aberdeenshire.  OH and I are 'celebrating' our 43rd Aniversary in the traditional way by butchering a pig which should be delivered from the abattoir shortly...

    I jest not.  We help to raise traditional breed pigs for pork. This year we had Berkshire boars.  Very good natured beasts,  born and raised outside on pasture, and given as good a life as possible.

    Last year we raised 'Oxford Sandy & Black' sows.  Obnoxious beasts - wouldn't have them again.  I do have a soft spot for 'British Saddlebacks'.

    Took Wcooby to Langford Vetinary Hospital Bristol again today for her next chemotherapy treatment which went well. Let's hope she does not fall flat again in the next few days. Next treatment in two weeks time continuing to Christmas when we hope she will
    be in remission.

    Sunny warm afternoon but did have a short sharp shower about 4:00. Now sat watching the rabbits having fun running round the CL grounds.

    We've certainly struck lucky with the weather so far on this trip to deepest rural Somerset. This morning we walked from a village called Combe St Nicholas near Chard with the most fantastic views over the local countryside.This afternoon's been a mixture
    of reading and dozing sat out in glorious warm sunshine. This CL (Forton House) is great, peace and quiet and we've got the entire grass area to ourselves. Magic! Happy

    Cleaned the car for the first time since i've had it (3 months) as getting ready for the off on Sunday.

    Van  serviced and ready to go, just got to put the few odd beers and bottles of wine in it.

    Back home again after our 2 week trip, had a lovely drive up the East coast from York. Although there were roadworks there were no holdups. Coming over the Forth road bridge the sight was fantastic, the estuary was covered in fog the bridges looked as if
    they were floating on top of the fog, the sun was shining on the towers and the new bridge (nealy finished) looked fantastic.Why do you never have a camera to hand when you need one. 

    We've had a great break and the weather has been very kind to us, now to get the washing done and the garden tidied up. Smile
