Sunny Saturday

Gill left mid-morning to head back to Troon and in the afternoon Minty and I tried out a new walk on a different stretch of the West Highland Way. Part of it was across a large field, where Minty went a little bit loopy, relishing the wide open space by tearing round and round at great speed. Our old westie used to do that too - we called it his 'white tornado' routine - and it always made us laugh.

The main part of the walk, however, was an uphill slog a gentle climb up towards the forest in glorious warm sunshine, the reward for the effort being in the views on the way.

Several fabulous dances on Strictly tonight!
