Crotchety!

I have passed this boat on the back road to Oban for a number of years and had always promised myself I would stop to snap it. However conditions have always been less than perfect...today however was just perfect. I pulled off the road onto the wee pass, crossed over the road and began the reasonably short walk to the lochside. What I hadnt bargened on was the bloody grass level creeping thorny bushes and yes I did stumble over what was very uneven ground! However given that I was just holding the camera in my hand I didnt want to take a header so fell straight down like I was squatting. Then I heard it.....rip, then I felt it.... a cold wind. I had split the crotch of by bloody trousers! Being the true professional I am, I carried on taking photos but then had to consider my options.
Do I carry on to OBan and try to park the bloody car as close to a shop as possible? I would still have to enter the damn shop with what was a sizeable tear in an unfortunate part of my breeks. No way was I going to go up to function I was heading for as it as full of kids who can be such cruel wee bastards! I could just see the headlines in the 12 minute silence that is the Oban Times. " Female flasher knocks whale off the front page" No I headed home. Oban can wait till tomorrow.
The diet starts now!
Happy blipping all
