452: And all for the sake of an egg banjo!

Got to keep the heart and lungs and muscles going as long as possible so another walk yesterday. The last time I was in Brora I enjoyed a fried egg roll in Linda's cafe so that's where we headed yesterday. After walking for 2.5 hours I felt I had enough calories 'in credit' that I could manage another egg banjo without developing a guilty conscience. Very nice it was too.

 A lovely walk with the North Sea on our right, or starboard, side all the way. A grassy, albeit muddy in places, path except where we met some grazing cattle when we decided that walking on the shingle on the sea shore would be the more prudent option. Scared of a couple of cows you may ask but in fact cows occasionally take umbrage at humans in 'their' field and have even been known to kill people. Some poor man lost his life a couple of months ago.  A few pics, in no particular order.

 And here is Inspector Clousseau come to check the fern!
