For some reason the sun has been shining. I managed a short game of bowls and two [albeit short]bike  rides since we last spoke and I feel quite good for a change. I might even "push the boat" out and play a game of bowls next week on an adjacent isle where there is a cafe next door. 

The tourists are around the island now, campervans and all. As it happens the main ferry to Lewis is less than perfect atm restricting it's carrying capacity. [saddish face 😆].

another month

 

It must be time for another cuppa since the sun has been shing yet the breeze cool.

Give me a moment while I search for my mojo which I seem to have lost down the back of the settee.

beach

 

We had been to a community cafe, met some people we knew and talked a bit. A lot actually then passed the unfinished house on the hill, past the houses by the waters edge then up a steep narrow road to the beach. That's the sort of thing we do these days. 

The weather was nice. The beach was really quiet with the waves behaving themselves and the bell in the water unrung. We were there at the opening  too but as yet have not heard the bell ring.

cafe

 

A nice looking cafe in Edinburgh we came across by chance. we didn't go in but were told it is rather lovely. Reminded me of the old Floyds Bistro in Bristol.

buds of april

Not sure what Eve is growing here but the buds on sticks are doing well.
 

sisters

From a few weeks back in Edinburgh, my sisters are off down the waters of leith. I wasn't since I had no energy left. If recall correctly, a visit to a cafe was imminently in order.

I was toting a Olympus XA at the time with gifted Tri-x installed.

I think me looking at HCB pictures has me influenced somehow.
