River Kale.....

"Ah, Tam! gie me a Border burn
That canna rin without a turn,
And wi' its bonnie babble fills
The glens amang oor native hills.
How men that ance have kend aboot it
Can leeve their after lives withoot it,
I canna tell, for day and nicht
It comes unca'd-for to my sicht.
I see 't this moment, plain as day,
As it comes bickerin' owre the brae,
Atween the clumps o' purple heather,
Glistenin' in the summer weather, "

- J B selkirk


It was so hot today I nearly went for a wee paddle here just to cool down.
