Beast from the east

No, I did not forget to update this marvelous blog, I was stranded in Dunfermline with no access to internet for the most part, OK I did have access while at work, but I cannot remember the passwords etc. I do not want to use my work PC for private matters anyway, perhaps because I am sensible.

Anyway the month involved a couple of walks to Kirkcaldy along the coast, a long-awaited trip to Edinburgh, and, in last few days, lots of snow.

I was stranded at work from Wednesday until Friday, and only got home yesterday by walking the last few miles from the far side of Aberdour. Spent the two nights in the Wetherspoons hotel in Dunfermline, but unfortunately on the the first night the bar was closed as all the staff had gone home. Still, my other stranded colleagues and I found a few other pubs that were not yet closed..

Photos show Dunfermline High Street from an office window, the Dutch team in the pub, except Gino, who was thrown out of this one for being pissed. Gino is seen as found outside our hotel after leaving the pub.  The other photo, on a sunnier day, is of one of the bus shelters that have now been removed from the Kirkcaldy promendade, one was from 1930, the one in the photo from 1938, bit of a shame they are gone, but it improves the area no doubt.

Only got home yesterday after a colleague risked her car to drive me to the outskirts of Aberdour, I walked the coast home from there.
