The perfect morning

This morning I had a slight lie in. My other half was heading off to Edinburgh to the football so I decided to take myself off for a solitary walk as it was such a beautiful, sunny morning. He said to me when we first began walking, "you need to decide the primary purpose of your walk, is it to hang around and get that perfect shot, is it for exercise, for the views........you need to decide". I think his patience was wearing thin with all of my stopping to take photos.

Well today the primary purpose of my 6 mile walk was to do exactly what I wanted, when I wanted. I walked, photographed, ran, looked and picked more than 1lb of wild brambles. I loved it.....sometimes it's good to do exactly what you want!

Now the brambles need to be turned into something else, for starters it's going to be bramble gin, hopefully tomorrow, as the forecast is shocking.
