Another lovely morning for a stroll round the Links. In fact, it was so mild, still and sunny, I sat down on a bench and we just watched people and dogs coming and going. This was the only photo I took all day.

In the afternoon we took a sudden notion to pop into town to look for Christmassy presents for our visitors. Not much luck, though JR got quite a haul of festive edible goodies in M&S after I’d given up and headed home.

Archie and I then took another walk. He’s happy being left alone with his toy stuffed with treats. He’s usually still obsessing with it when I come back after a couple of hours.

Update on the coughing: It’s STILL here! I get the most awful coughing fits that last about five/ten minutes. But I did sleep most of last night.
