walking
Long lie. Poached eggs on toast. Cosy new accommodation - was lovely to meet and speak with some new guests last night. On two occasions, two separate people said I should write a book! - Was I talking too much... or just very interesting....? Left my washing out as it was still a little damp. Did the West Westray Walk, along the west side clifftops, beautiful views and terrifying heights - not many fences either... took off my waterproof and unzipped the fleece - it was getting hot! This wasn't to last and after completing the walk by Noup Head Lighthouse, with still 4+ miles to home... the rain started and hasn't yet ceased. (Sunday evening). Quite a 'plod' home again. Wet West Westray Walk & Wet Washing. GP cooked tea, butternut squash and blue cheese risotto - really tasty & more rhubarb crumble (think mine was a little better...) & then we had a home visit.. Made it back to the Barn & spent the evening chatting to more visitors, very interesting. One man a former RSPB warden is doing some research into people's attatchment to sea birds, we all had some discussions and I learned alot. Problem free warm shower & ready to leave the misty day behind and crawl into bed.
