Sentimental walking hoarder

Have a day off today and the sun is shining into my eyes as I write this, makes a change after all the miserable weather we've been having. Had intended to go to Arrochar and climb/walk up the Cobbler but the forecast was so bad I postponed the idea. Have been walking this month though, a couple of times along to Aberdour, so no massive distance, but will be doing longer stretches in the next few weeks. Also walked along to Kirkcaldy to do some shopping in the new Morrisons supermarket there, then walked back along the coast with my shopping as a picture here shows.

Workwise things are ok, am changing hours soon so will have slightly more free time, so that's good. It's also good that I can forget all about work when I'm not there. Have a week off after next week, will head down to England for relaxation, walking, and a few real ales I'm sure, am in holiday mode already, am ticking the days off until then. Have an appointment at an Edinburgh hospital before then, nothing major, but it's something I could do without.

Been along at my Dad's house a couple of times, he wants a lot of things cleared out, not furniture, just the "junk". He has moved on with his life and has a new romantic interest, good for him. My mum, like me, was a bit of a hoarder, and I don't like to see things thrown out, especially photos and sentimental stuff, so I've loads of  photos etc in the flat now. If I get the scanner working I'll post some of them here.

Not many plans for this weekend as I'm working on Saturday, will no doubt be visiting the Auld Hoose though, it's good having a good pub on your doorstep! Shane they don't sell Schlenkerla smoked wheat beer though, am having that bottle in the picture right now. In the other photo the seals can be seen.
