Out and About

Post by Superstrath »

Passed a very pleasant weekend at the Oyster Inn, Connel Ferry. On Saturday, went for a drive and found ourselves at Balvicar boatyard. Thought to have a look around to see who I bumped into but was persuaded otherwise and went off to have a right good laugh at C John Taylor's Temple Of Tat at Easdale instead.http://www.highlandarts.co.uk/index.php
We used to do a bit of work from time to time for this self-proclaimed genius and I have always had a soft spot for his poetry and art.

That's 'poetry' and 'art' in very big inverted commas for the uninitiated.

Sorry we missed you - we were in Inverness over the weekend.

Not to worry - we had a nice pint in the Oyster, and a pleasant enough lunch in the Hoose Of The Troosers.
Pint of stout in the Oyster called, "Old Tosser," it was my 49th birthday after all.

Well that's alright then. As my Father unfeelingly pointed out to me on the way to The Beatson a while ago, "You're still young and you've always had your health."
