fleetfootmikeHey there from Dailly, in Ayrshire.
Pleasantly relaxing week to date - Dad and I had far too much fun flying a kite on Maiden beach, especially considering it cost 87p ($1 and small change) from Tesco's, on Sunday
. Also got to see Croy Brae (aka the 'Electric Brae'), a short stretch of the Ayr/Girvan road which is fairly famous - basically the lie of the surrounding land makes the road look like it slopes uphill, when in fact it very demonstrably does not - you stop, let the clutch out, and the car rolls in entirely the opposite direction to the one you expect. There's also the wierdest tree on the way back from there.
Monday we spent at Culzean Castle - big sprawling country park plus 18th century stately home, its own beach (James was pleased). Views across to Arran and to Ailsa Craig.
[Pictures from built-in camera on Sony Ericsson t610. Quality thus dubious!]
