Yep, it's only 9pm, but I thought I'd better get this out of the way. Not expecting much to happen tonight at any rate.

Reasonably nice day, with the clouds disappearing until lunchtime. After lunch, mrs B and myself are taken to the Watermill, on the northern edge of the town, and walk back along the mill lade and through the Golf Course. The Watermill building is locked, unusually, and the wheel is stationary. Blackberries are starting to ripen, although some are still in bloom. Whatever is there in terms of berries is mostly very sour. Cross into the Golf Course, where a fair number of players are out. On return to town, go for some shopping - it's quite busy and actually warm this afternoon. Very stifling. This breaks down into a short shower around the 6pm mark. The Tourist Office had some up to date information leaflets and An Lanntair was closed for a wedding. I was wondering about all the guys going round town in their kilts. Dinner: mashed potatoes, green beans and fried mince with carrots.

    Can I just jump in those photos?......So many places on earth,,,yah know what would be an interesting movie? What if a man could see all the most beautiful places in the world? IN one year, some magic made it possible. So for a year, his eyes saw only beauty- All the horizons, all the beaches, many mountains views, all the man made monuments,,and then he must spend the next year seeing all the horrible places on earth,,,war, famine, poverty..........at the end of the movie what would be the moral?....He would brave the uglyand cruel to just see a glimpse of the beauty,,,,It would be worth it..

    When I went to my kids home they gave me all sorts of Blackberries that will last me through winter. They are such a nice touch of heaven aren't they?
