Thank You For the Days ..

Just Another Sunny Sunday

Out for a wander down by the Tweed near Dryburgh. Don't know who owns these gates, or the lands within, but I get the message that we're not being invited in.

Not to worry, we carried on and came to a strange little old monument called 'The Temple of the Muses', dedicated to James Thomson.  He was a local lad, a poet, who went to London and found fame as the author of the words of 'Rule Britannia'.

It now houses a modern piece of sculpture (extra),  'The Four Seasons' (another of Thomson's works) by local artist Siobhan O'Hehir.

TM pointed out that it has four heads and five legs. I told him to use his imagination.
