The Road to Manderley

Not a bad day today - no rain, some sunshine! 

We had a walk again down to the seafront, but heading north this time to the Corran Halls and back home via a different route.

Some wonderful clouds in a beautiful blue sky. Not many folk about again.

This lovely Italianate house above the town is called Manderley, as in Daphne du Maurier's novel 'Rebecca', and not as Kipling's poem 'The Road to Mandalay. It's said to have been designed by George Woulfe Brenan and dates from 1887. It's a B listed building.  

Quote of the Day:

John Buchan, 'The Gap in the Curtain' - "We should keep the past next door to us in our lives and be always looking back to it."
