Feeding the gulls!

Today I had arranged to meet Layla and Bella down at the shore before going over to theirs to help make the beetroot chutney.
Up earlyish with Graham had breakfast, messed around then when Layla telephoned arranged to meet her around 1115/1130h.
Had a wash got things together then Ruaridh and moi set off to walk along the cycle path, the weather was fine windy but with the sun breaking through. We had a nice walk and arrived at the shore no Layla or Bella, as we arrived my phone rang and it was Layla to say they had been delayed and would be down in 10 minutes. So Ruaridh and moi set off for a walk and it started to rain! saw Layla's car and set off on the grassy hill to meet them, the heavens opened. Bella had her bag of bread to feed the ducks so off we set to walk to Cramond and did it rain, everyone we met was in the same boat soaked through. Bella was cosy in her pram with her new suit on blipfoto.com/A Dog's Dinner and her raincover, Layla, Ruaridh and moi were like drowned rats. When we got to the river estuary no ducks think they had a fright with the wind and rain but lots of gulls, so they got the bread!
Ruaridh as per usual had a great time chasing leaves met one or two dogs but not really interested in playing with them. On the way back the rain stopped and Miss B was able to walk and jump in the puddles, which she really enjoyed.
Back to their house for lunch lovely soup and crackers, then whilst Bella had a wee sleep we did the beetroot chutney.
Graham came over to see Bella and then we left to go to Waitrose, got the messages then home.
Put the messages away then a cuppa. Veggie stew, mashed tatties and broad beans for dinner with some Isle of Skye beer hmm.
Going to do some knitting then a cuppa. Bye.
