I had a day in Ayr today, finding a new café which is also a coffee roastery...Rocket Monkey!! Recontacting a small shop/gallery, ordering a new book!!!!
Wandered through a shopping mall...
And French conversation group in the library in the afternoon...
It is one of the Carnegie library buildings so should be safe from closure.
Then home to ....the car!!!!
I picked the key up from my neighbour over the road and had a good natter....it is one of her grandsons who mended the car.
I'll go down to his garage on Monday to pay...no way am I going to Ayr tomorrow as the Ayr Air Show is on this weekend!!!
Wonderful photo of the blinds. A good photographer is a person with a camera who has a great eye for noticing things others miss. And Ayr Air Show made me laugh.
ReplyDeleteIt is officially the "festival of flight".....but not locally..!!.
DeleteThat's a beautiful window. Glad to hear it's in a listed building so won't be going anywhere soon.
ReplyDeleteIo visited someone living off-grid today and noticed custom made stained glass windows in a small cabin adjacent to the house. Gorgeous wee gingerbread house. Look round the back he said. Nooo - it's a container. Well its very cute on 3 sides (and roof). Anyway - stained glass - it can be grand or 'gingerbread' but it always adds something special.
ReplyDeleteT’s Mom, this sounds so interesting! I can’t even imagine it! — Dee
DeleteLove the window and the blinds.
ReplyDeleteI’m not one for crowds so I’d definitely stay home too
I like the sculpture of the book reader and his dog.
ReplyDeleteSuch a relief to hear your car is fixed finally!
ReplyDeleteDid you ever read the George the Cyclist blog? He cycled all over the world and in the US his passion was to visit as many Carnegie libraries as possible. I don't know if he made it to your part of Scotland and this one, but seeing that made me smile with sweet memories.
ReplyDeleteAvoiding crowds is always a priority for me too.
ReplyDeleteThe stained-glass window is lovely.
Great to have your car back. More options for transport are always good. .
I hope you get photos of the air show. That sounds exciting, I do like the stained glass windows.
ReplyDeleteNo photos Amy...not my thing..we see enough planes overhead every day!! And I hate crowded places
DeleteHurray for the car! Finally!
ReplyDeleteFrench conversation group is a great idea. That will keep your skills polished up.
