| The weather must be warming up |
We welcomed
back Paul and Gus from their recent illnesses and hoped that today’s flat walk
would get them back in the groove. We were also happy to welcome Peter back
from Ballantrae!
The morning
was fresh and dry but a wind was blowing up the coastline making a few don
jackets to begin with. Undeterred, Gus and the two Davies (not to be confused
with the two Ronnies, although, mind you, there was a big one and a wee one in
that duo as well – but they weren’t as funny) were resplendent in shorts.

The walk
along the beach from the car park on the shore front to Seamill was uneventful
and beyond that most of us took to the path adjacent to the golf course for the
rest of the outward journey up to Portencross Road. On the way down to the
castle, where lunch was to be taken, the boys showed their footballing skills
as a ball had been found. This episode came to an end when it was passed to
Davie Mc who demonstrated his close control by sending the ball into a tattie
field.
It had only
taken an hour and a half to get to our furthest point and by 11 o’clock the
return journey, into the wind, was begun. Arriving back at the cars at about
12.30p.m., the first drops of rain started to fall.
This was a
good walk which blew away the cobwebs and was easily negotiatd by Paul and Gus.
FRT was taken at the Lauriston in Ardrossan.
