Flying High!

The wind was out in force in Troon today, blowing an absolute hoolie!! Naturally, we deemed this the perfect weather for taking the pop up tent to the beach...just because we could!

So, armed with said tent, flasks, a disposable BBQ and our coats off we set. All was going well until the pop up tent took the idea of popping a tad far...and popped off!! The wind got underneath it before we could weight it down and it was off like a rocket. It flew off the beach, along the car parking area, the immediate street, the adjoining street before turning left down another street...where a group of ladies rescued it and put it in a sheltered doorway...which was when we appeared!!

Our second attempt was much more successful and we enjoyed our brews with a view, sheltered from the elements. The kite surfers were amazing, I never realised they could jump so high above the waves. Amazing!! Polly was quite happy snuggled up close too! :-)

The sun came out this afternoon for a cliff top walk which was beautiful too. I've just got back home having had company on the drive back. I took a minor detour to drop one of the Troon Trio, Tim, off at his Mum's house in Burnley. Lovely to have a nattering chum all the way. :-)
