Yesterday saw us up at St Andrews to celebrate the birthday of my middle daughter who is here on a visit from Cornwall. Having missed the bus there by thirty seconds a complicated journey ensued but we got there. First stop was brunch at Northpoint Cafe in St Andrews, a family favourite we have been coming to for more years than I care to recall. A walk through the cordoned off cathedral was next then onto the beach-
Afterwards was ice cream and wee look round the shops before home to a meal and episode three of the Rings of Power. A good day.
It's a good while since I was at St Andrews. Can you still go the short distance underground in the mine gallery cut by the besiegers?

You can indeed normally but the castle is closed, like many of Historic Scotland’s properties.

Looks bracing... A splendid day.
ReplyDeleteNot as bracing as it often can be, can be a cold place at times.

I claim my Geek Points: Big Sky - Kate Bush, mid-80s music video? full of ImagiNations uniforms and eerie opening (Matter of Life and Death?) moments of aircrew in the clouds. Youtube: https://youtu.be/sV7w5TaYjRA

Big Sky Country is the state nickname for Montana.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a nice day there in Scotland.
I’d forgotten that, it certainly was.
