Edinburgh Marathon

It's a weekend for fit and energetic people!  Marathon runners.  They have my admiration in bucketloads, especially those turning out for the big event being held in Manchester this weekend.  

 The route for the Edinburgh Marathon passes by close to here.  In fact, as I type, the wind is carrying the festive sounds of a steel band up the hill to me in the garden!  The dogs and I walked down to the coast road earlier this morning, but even by then there were some runners who were already on their way back to town!  Hooray for all them!

I cannot navigate to the main body of the post to create text. The new template has no prompts for adding photos, weblinks, to format the text, change font etc. It may be my old MacBook that's as fault but I can't do anything about that!! Are any other IAVOM bloggers who use Blogger having the same problems? I have tried, three times, to contact Blogger through their 'Help' prompt and received no feedback or contact whatsoever. This post is using the old 'Legacy' format, which no longer permits any kind of formatting of text, and so after four attempts I have finally manage...

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.
