The Cart Shed at Rait

This used to be called the Tufted Duck and is now The Cart Shed. The guy that had it before, Tim, made the best egg mayo sandwiches in Perthshire. He has moved on after many years here and it’s now owned by the people that have The Pickled Peacock in Errol..

I had lentil soup followed by a freshly made apple crumble scone, raspberry jam and a cappuccino. All was very good. We met an American couple from Salt Lake City. Very softly spoken couple. Very nice and talked about their tour of Scotland.

The reason we were here is that Lucca was getting trimmed by Sheila along the road at Craigdallie. She met her Mum Dora and her sister Greta. They are all so alike.

When we picked Lucca up I was pleased to see Lucca sitting at the gate wanting to come with us not wanting to stay there. We were chatting in the garden and she was adamant she was coming with us.

That was nice.

She’s like Bambi now so shown and the amount of hair that came off was unreal. Blue roans are so hairy.
