Shortest blog post ever

I just realized that when I ran on West Sands Beach the other day, I was running on the exact same beach that the opening scene from Chariots of Fire was filmed.  Thats cool.




Different angle same place.

Remember Remember the Fifth of November

Today is Guy Fawkes Day.  A bunch of us are going to West Sands beach to set off fireworks.  I didnt realize that West Sands was sooo close to my flat.  I step outside walk down an alley way for 30 seconds and I'm at the coast.  I am aware of how lucky I am.  LUCKY. Its going to be a great dog walking path





While walking to the beach today, I ran into a wedding party.  A bride was exiting her vintage car, surrounded by men in kilts, while being serenaded by a bagpipe player.  It was so lovely.  Tourists were stopped in the street walking.

I walked through some of the golf course as well today.  Its really amazing to walk through town, including the golf course, that has been around for hundreds of years.  As a friend explained last night.... its older than your country!!!! Puts it into perspective.

Presley is here in a week! :))) He is going to be a rock star, everyone is excited to meet him.
