Jimmy's coastal walk Day 2
As a fair weather walker, it took me nearly two weeks to find another suitable day with a decent weather forecast. I took an early bus to Eyemouth and picked up the coast path where I'd left off.
The path was easy to follow as before until I reached Dowlaw farm where I lost it and ended up on tarmac for a bit. The path was quite ...
Across the Forth to Eyemouth

Wallabies II
... great food. On the way we stopped at St Giles' cathedral where apparently one of my ancestors used to play the organ. Lowlights - The haggis- apparently we just didnt have a very good version and there is a particular brand that is really nice.. (so a Scotsman told me anyway) - Not having time to walk up to Arthur's Seat- a hill from where you can get a panoramic view of the city. That's right Greg, we didn't have ...
