By the time I have walked about four miles, my toes are screaming at me - it's the arthritis, you see. One of the joys of being that little bit older than I was.

So, having worked out the tide times, I decided today was the day, and off we went. Below is our starting point, the bay at Gullane. It's a lovely beach, very popular with dog walkers.

Two of those eggs, poached, on buttered toast, seasoned with salt and freshly ground black pepper makes The Best breakfast!
