A grey and slightly damp day here. Did the cleaning then headed off on my Vagabond, a mostly off road route taking in a hot chocolate at the Two Pines in Auchendinny, a loop around Roslynlee, and a return home through Flotterstone and over Maidens, 24 miles. Have now had lunch. My diary for the rest of the day is unusually busy, I have a call with the IFA at 3, an ear wax appointment at the chemist at 4, and a Pentland Book Festival event this evening, this being a talk by noted Borders author Alistair Moffat.
