bald patches

We eventually did almost eight miles, albeit with a snack-break, but it was doubtful that we'd get anywhere at this point when there turned out to be a lawnmower to watch. For some reason there are two small circular and one square patch being mowed into Leith Links. Despite trotting over to watch the lawnmower operator dump the clippings beside a nearby tree Edgar didn't want to ask him what they were for.
