MUGDOCK COUNTRY PARK

Last night we had a most pleasant ceilidh with 6 of our friends all of whom sail their own boats ... yacht type boats. They have all been out for long periods this summer - long trips, short trips, alone or with crew. The idea was, however, that the men help move, as Iain says "the scenery" before we could start the evening as the living room was bare of furniture due to the carpet being laid (at long last!). It was great to dust of the old tunes ... and lots of good craic* as they say in these parts.

So we now are finished the basics of the interior renovation of the house. Time to down tools and head out to Mugdock (moorland adjacent to Milngavie, on the edge of Glasgow) and enjoy the November afternoon sunshine.
