Summer? What summer?

So much for the great British Summer!
I beat the rain by getting the gym and short cycle run finished as the first raindrops hit the ground.

It was lovely to meet up for coffee with the Merry Widows and give them a debriefing of my month away in the Northlands and make plans for sedate outings in the next few weeks to the countryside around the city- next week Haddington.

I tried my hand this afternoon at making Fattie Cutties. All I can say on the subject is that The bakeries at Westray and Birsay need not feel threatened. My apologies are edible but don’t cut it on the pictorial front. I am confident that practice will make perfect.
