Tuesday was our 36th wedding anniversary and it has been our custom to go for a walk somewhere new or special or both; walk and have lunch.
In the past we have visited Seil Island, Duntrune, Ardfern, Skipness and many other wonderful Argyll locations.
This year, so many venues were closed or only open in the evenings, or meant a long drive to get there. In the end we opted for a long-time favourite — Crinan and the Canal — almost on our doorstep.
After a beautiful meal in The Crinan Hotel’s Seafood Bar, we skirted the building site which is Crinan Basin at present and had a pleasant if blustery stroll along the Canal towpath. Here’s hoping the canal reopens soon to welcome visitors. Happy Anniversary my beautiful Gill.
And a Happy Birthday to my late mother, who passed away in October 2019. Born on 1st March (St David’s Day) in 1927, today is thus always a special day of remembrance for another very special woman.
