Was contemplating a hike up Ben Rinnes (the white one on the right) this weekend....maybe not.

The River Braan beside the Hermitage, near Dunkeld today
It was a pleasant dawdle up through the trees beside the Braan to the Hermitage this afternoon.
But the other part of the plan didn't work out so smoothly. In the (Glasgow) Herald today there was an article on a bakery in Dunkeld, run by a former contestant in the Great British Bake Off - so we felt a visit was required. Much to our surprise it was closed - apparently it only stays open until all of their fresh bakery items have sold out, and this usually occurs in early afternoon at the weekends. Looking at the web I see that it has been known for a queue to form before it opens. Clearly I'll need to get on the road to Dunkeld a bit sooner in the morning.

There are days where you have other things planned but where the weather conditions mean you just have to drop those plans and just......get out there.

Ooooer. Noooo!
Assuming the human subject is ‘wifey’you must convince her n’er to place those firm tender rounded cheeks on snow covered freezing rocks else you’ll be putting thru’ a call to Dr. Pile to administer soothing ointment to those nasty hemorrhoids .
Nice photo by the way.

The photo is of me.
And she's on her way round to kick your ass.

[titter] So it was you. [/titter]
To save a wasted journey tell her to leave it until after New Year when I’ll be back there. Oh, and can she also wear slippers instead of boots as my ‘farmers’ are giving me a little gip of late.

Re: The Lemonfool my pic of the day thread
The guy in the yellow jacket who I caught up with and walked/chatted with for a while was 74 years old and somewhat of a 'Munro' celebrity, having completed all the peaks just 3 years ago. He uses Ben Rinnes as a bit of a sharpener when he can't get to anything bigger.
For being almost quarter of a century older than me, he was only about 5 or 10 minutes behind us at the top. A remarkable chap.

And I hope in quarter of a century's time you'll still be strolling up Ben Rinnes, and wondering why anyone should think it unusual at 75 years old.

But in quarter of a century the other chap will be heading towards genuinely remarkable for doing it.

If she lived next door to me playing her bloody rock music at that volume at the time I'd be knocking on her door constantly.
......And hoping she answers.

Superb fingering.
