Turned out to be a lovely autumn day. What we call here a Pet Day.
Got out on trike at last and not too much traffic. At my turning point I sat for a while and a straggle of people on ebikes came past. did not count them but must have been 15 to 20 all spread out which is a nuisance to other traffic. They all had shiny new looking helmets so I guess they were hire bikes.
Went out expecting to find it very cold but in the sunshine it was actually quite warm and did not need the winter hat or gloves.

The car racing is a couple of weeks away but signs are appearing already. If I do not get out early next week that is me off the road for a couple of weeks as they go out practicing tho' not really supposed to and cars racing round blind corners is not good and then there are the boy racers as well.
On the section to Dervaig my wife could have given them some tips as she drove to teach at the school there for a while and did not spare the horses when travelling. Later they appointed a new head teacher who lived in Tobermory and did not have a driving license [ don't ask:whistle: ] so she bought a car and my wife was then appointed second in command and drove the car to and from work for a couple of years.

I have another three and a half kilos of walnuts.

This tree is very old and didn't appear to have a massive crop, but also, it seems to be the earliest ripening of all the trees I know about. So not worth going back as I couldn't really see much left. All the branches are way out of reach, so it's a furkle on hands-and-knees kind of job. That's fine if there are loads, but you do get to a point of diminishing returns of nuts found vs time spent furkling.

Spotted another promising stand of new hazel bushes for next year on the way home, and stopped nearby to pick a punnet of these delightful red-and-yellow crab apples.

Now sat down with a nice :cuppa:
