This was a couple of Saturdays ago: 17th Nov. I don't remember the fine tuning but it looks like a nice run around the usual route at Gullane. We tried out coffee and scones from Cherish. A relatively new cafe and emporium in Gullane. I think the jury is still out. I REALLY liked the scone and the coffee was fine (I am no connoisseur and once I have put milk and 2 sugars in, any trace of the original flavour is long gone) but Mary was unimpressed with the overall ambience. It is kind of weird. Bare white walls inside but brash blue and pink on the outside and showy chanderliers. And as many tables as you can fit in a small room. And downstairs the emporium is a sort of mix of chintz, strange paintings and junk shop where you can buy an unattractive canteen of cakeknives from 1950. But hey, to repeat: the coffee and scone, I really liked them.
The photography theme this week was backlit beauties: the sun was very helpful staying out all afternoon, hanging low in the sky like a sunrise that merges into sunset without ever doing noon.
I only took this pic of a distant scarecrow to confirm it wasn't actually a person
but then later noticed the deer family having a picnic behind and left.

Just for a change we climbed up to the top
of the golf course and ran back that way
