Yesterday we picked Peggy of Peggy Ann’s Post up from Edinburgh airport, she was here visiting us last year but we didn’t quite manage to visit all of Scotland that time, despite running around like crazy – so she’s back for part two! Luckily she brought the good weather with her, for a few days at least.
Can you believe that we didn’t have time to take her to the East Neuk fishing villages last year? It’s true that you tend to overlook the attractions right on your own doorstep. Anyway we rectified that today.
You can see images of the Fife fishing villages here.
You can see Peggy’s recent blogpost and just some of the many photos she took here.
I didn’t take many photos of the villages as I’ve taken so many before. But look what I spotted parked outside a shop in Pittenweem.
Yes, a British Racing Green Morgan. I knew that that is Joan of Planet Joan‘s dream car so I had to take some photos for her. It’s possibly just as well that Joan wasn’t with us, she might have been tempted to at least sit in the car and vroom vroom!
Then Peggy spotted an Irish Wolfhound in the shade of a ‘close’ across the road, trying to stay cool in the unusual heat. So Jack took a couple of photos just for Joan.
I don’t know if this hound looks anything like her beloved Murphy did but I suspect that if she had been here she might have been very tempted to abduct the dog and the car. Too tempting!
And this is what Crail harbour looked like when we got there.
That was a great day out for the first day of Peggy’s holiday with us, I hope the rest of her time is as good but I suspect the weather isn’t going to hold out that long.







What beautiful weather, and such a lovely setting.
Enjoy your time together, I hope the weather is kind to you.
Valerie,
Thanks. We live in hope of it staying fine but the weekend looks a bit ‘iffy’.
Have a wonderful time, you two!
Paula
Paula,
Thanks, we’ll do our best!
Thanks for the photos, Katrina. Yes, Morgans and MGs from the 1950s are my favorite, especially in British Racing Green. I would have had to at least lean against that lovely car.
The Wolfhound is much shaggier than any of our three, but a Wolfhound is a Wolfhound, one of the sweetest dogs on Earth. We miss ours very much.
Joan,
All the Wolfhounds I have seen around here are quite hairy. I wouldn’t like to have to clean up after them that’s for sure. That one was very placid.
What fun! And what wonderful photos. Glad you had the weather.
Sandra,
She must have brought that good weather with her, but it looks like it’ll break by the weekend – shame.
Lucky Peggy Ann.
Lorraine,
Well, she says she feels lucky anyway!
