Grumpy Old Man

Biker boys

Quite a cool, dull day to begin with, so I got on with titling pictures and thought I might walk downtown after lunch. It still wasn't very warm, but not long after I set off the clouds cleared and it began to warm up. 

I bought a paper and walked along the seafront, trying to find somewhere to sit, but the town was mobbed and all the seats taken. There were two groups of bikers - one British and the other German. My Blip today is the British lot. I popped into the Chocolate Shop and bought an ice cream, moving down the Esplanade until I found a free seat opposite the Corran Halls and sat there for a while. By this time my pullover and jacket were both rolled up inside my backpack!

When my ice cream was finished I set off for home, stopping en route to look at my Keep Oban Beautiful flower bed. My Primula vialii were still there, but needing a drink - I'll pop down tomorrow with the can. By the time I got home I was dripping and my hip was killing me. I sat outside with a cuppa for a while, but soon had to come in - just too hot. Never satisfied, some people!
