That was a bit worrying!
I went round to feed a friend's cat. Yesterday I went round and just saw a flash of cat as it dashed past me and hid somewhere?
Today I went round to discover £60 in cash on the floor !
MY immediate thought was, has she been burgled! The cat food had gone but the litter tray hadn't been used ! I checked the house for signs of entry but everything looked fine! I started to put some food out and the mysterious cat appeared. A long furred sooty coloured male. I gave it a stroke which he enjoyed and realized what he had missed out on . He had some food and then came back for more strokes. We had a long chat and strokes and he started purring . I left him saying that his minder should be returning later today . We think that the cat must have knocked the money our friend had put away to pay for some gardening work .

Great ride out today. Breakfast at the Lake whilst being watched by Coots, Grebe, Canada Geese and Mallard.
Suffice to say I didn`t share it with them

Lovely autumnal morning so out for a trike run as it looks to be the only decent day this week.
An advantage of the trike is being able to stop more or less anywhere to look around so stopped a couple of times to watch a pair of what can only be ravens circling around. No obvious reason but could be a territorial dispute.
The Little Grebe took one look at me and dived to resurface a long way off near a gaggle of geese.
We also seem to be reaching the season of squashed frogs on the road.
Not much traffic and I sat in a passing place for 5 minutes as I knew the school bus was due past. Some drivers wave enthusiastically but never very sure who they are. One was the local physio I think.
My wife drove this road daily for a couple of years when she was teaching. Could give the rally drivers a run for their money.
At one point she was the sole teacher in Dervaig but the numbers went up and she did not want to be head teacher so the powers that be appointed a head teacher with her as assistant.
Naturally they appointed somebody who lived in Tobermory but had no driving licence and had a lengthy ban. The bus service did not suit. This person bought a car and my wife was appointed the sole driver so she drove both of them over daily.
It was harder work than teaching a class of primary 6 boys in Dalmuir near Clydebank but "interesting".

I've just had a cheese and onion sandwich and very nice it was too.
Talking to trees seems particularly poplar this morning.
