Traprain Law

Two major events today.

1. Sun - I actually sat in the sun, in a t-shirt today. Ok so it wasn't properly outside, I opened the French windows in the living room, but I still felt actual sun on my skin. I could almost feel the vitamin D flowing into my body.

2. Exercise - to get the most from the aforementioned glowing yellow ball in the sky, we ventured up Traprain Law which has been on my to-do list for some time. There was a trail of horse crap the whole way up, which we successfully dodged, and led us to this herd of Exmoor Ponies. I noticed one seemed to have a poorly leg and limped away when we got too close. I felt like I should report this to someone so was fair chuffed to come across this site and could send an email to the volunteers looking after them. Feeling very virtuous now! :)

I had less sympathy for the husband who, after munching on a caramac, fruit mentos and swigging Irn Bru the whole way up the hil,l developed a bad case of the hiccups by the time we reached the summit. He hiccuped the whole way back down while I trailed behind giggling.
