Jingle Tills!

A quick visit to Stirling this morning and what do we find? Lots of sparkly festive Christmas trees and decorations, that's all.
Well, the shops are struggling, so they keep telling us and some have already shut down or shrunk their networks. It does seem that this wonderful internet thing may be partly to blame and we ourselves should also share some of that. Maybe we should reduce our on- line shopping and go back to trotting round real shops. "Shop Local!"
Rant over (for today)
We took Chloe for a good long walk this afternoon as the threatened rain seemed to be staying away. A right big circular tour saw us both well up over our 10K steps a day. Sadly we didn't see the geese again as a dog walker spooked the whole lot, around 800 of them. All we saw was tail feathers disappearing into the distance!
