28th September 2021 – 13 miles travelled
I was woken this morning, well I was awake but made to get up, by Gavin saying their was deer in the cottage garden, come quick and see them.
Gavin had seen them earlier when he got up and had breakfast but now he was sure they were staying for long enough he come and got me up. There was a little baby deer one side of the fence and mummy deer the other side on the cottage drive eating some grass, after a while we saw another deer our side of the fence too. After a while she came up the side of the house and we saw her from the kitchen window easily hop back over the fence to her baby.
The deer stayed for half an hour or so before they went off to explore elsewhere. So late breakfast and lazy morning for me/us.
In the afternoon it cleared up a little, though still very windy and chilly but we wanted to get out for a while so another drive on the twistly little roads to find Flossies beach hut cafe/shop, where I had a cup of tea and we both had a piece of cake, ate in the car as it was far too cold to site outside with them.
It was only a temporary break from the rain which started again on our drive back, making it much more difficult drive.
