The old ones are the best

We were on a Sunday day out in Alsace, and had stopped for a tarte-flambe (e acute) picnic, when I spotted this lonely ami 8.

Afterwards we melted while watching hand-blown glass and had a look at a flea market of glasses.  If you received a holiday glass, it probably came from here, and almost certainly came from the flea market!

After this we toured a chrystal factory which was also fascinating.

Thanks as always, to tour-guide Patrick who is legend.

Cambus Pools

Took the bike out for a short spin this evening. Found my way down past the Cambus pools to where the Devon meets the Forth. I think.

Down near Cambus

Down by the riverside....

Back in Belfast for a few days to meet up with the mother-in-law.  Escaped from the house when she wasn't watching, and nipped into town for a wander.  Just note the fact that many shops are closed on Easter Tuesday......

 

And we met up with some of Ellen's old mates for lunch.

Salad for them and pig leg for me.  Epic!

 

Shame about the bed of beans!

Icy snap in Fife

Please note that the road was slippery this morning

Really slippery!

And for the record, I stopped to take the photo.
