As today was a Scottish bank holiday, we both had the day off and decided to spend the day in a semi-productive way. We took the bus thirty minutes out of Glasgow and spent the best part of the afternoon walking a tiny part of the West Highland Way through fields of bluebells, hiking up fairly steep slopes and catching our breaths underneath old, gnarled oak trees. A beautiful sunny day with a defiant breeze added to our enjoyment, as did spotting several buzzards flying high over the Campsie Fells.
Next time we will plan ahead, pack a proper picnic basket and maybe even check the map before we head out. We ended up on a bit of a detour involving a massive 19th century water reservoir (pretty, but not what we had in mind) which I’d be quite keen on avoiding on our next adventure.
PS. Eurovision? Wasn’t it exciting?! Congratulations to Germany (who can almost afford to host the event unlike most of the other participants) and a big congratulations to Norway, a fabulous host.
PPS. I have cast on a shawl.
don’t make me go and look at your rav page to see what you’ve cast on. Don’t leave me hanging like that!!
Loved Eurovision. Germany was great. Her diction was BIZARRE but she was easily the most natural.
That’s such a pretty photo!
No details on Rav yet! I need time to take a photo and that hasn’t happened yet…
