Easiest way is to walk from the point in Stevenston along the Irvine bar.
Those wimin were in the nip.

I walked it a couple of times when the bridge was working, probably 20 years ago now. It was fine, the biggest hazzard was avoiding the auld men who were walking about in the buff :lol:

The title is
"What are you doing or thinking right now"
Firstly I'm typing this
and as for Thinking
The world are screwed up , the world is run by folk that are certifiable, the concept of weaponizing the situation for their own ends,
Is it real or a created problem, to vaccinate or not , and the other "Self Created Problems" I'll stop at that for now

and then there is this

Starting to take out the bedding plants that have finished flowering - and my spring bulbs were delivered yesterday ready for planting up. I know it’s not the middle of august yet, and we are promised another hot spell later on this month, but I always feel by August, autumn is knocking at the door - and the kids go back to school next week. Hate to say goodbye to summer - it’s definitely my favourite time of year…

You too Brian - I noticed it was dark last night around 10 - the last fingers of red sky disappearing behind Arran. I just find autumn a sad time, yet it was my dads favourite time of the year. Hope you get a favourable result from the tablet tonight.

Had a lovely day until the second half of the football ...Rangers often have trouble playing against Ten men.🙄

Now i dont know about you Meg but whatever tv news channel i watch the best football player on the planet Lionel Messi is seen blubbering his eyes out because Barcelona are almost bankruput so cant afford him anymore. He has now joined a French team who are paying him about 500 thousand a week.
Makes my blood boil :twisted:

Yes, saw the result - another Scottish team out of Europe😥. As for Messi - £2m a month - jeezo - and foodbank use growing by the week in Scotland - there’s just no justice….

Bit of a tinderbox.. all it will take is a Taliban to shoot a U.S soldier and the whole place will go up.
