Walking in Troon



We headed out to Troon the day after the Swingin Utters gig, makin it out there for the Thursday afternoon. We don't often get to spen a whole day with Daz and Mhairi so it was great that we were going for a couple days, though I had to back for my last shift ever at Route One on the Sunday. It was still a nice couple days taking a wee break. The rest of Thursday we just chilled out and recouperated a wee bit from Wednesday night, and Friday was much the same, though we went out for dinner at their prospective wedding venue, with their daughter as well, which was really nice. So nothing to stressful, it was a great venue and I was going to take some photos, but by the time we got out there the sun was basically down so I didn't end up bothering. It did look beautiful when we walked up though.

Saturday we walked Jura, their Elkhound, now I really want a dog, but all the pet hair is still putting me off. It was everywhere, we have washed some of our clothes twice and it still won't go away. But the walk was great down the shore. And it turned out to be a really nice day for it. So it was a nice wee break to finish up the week before changing jobs, but more exciting news on that later.

Swingin Utters and ToyGuitar in Glasgow




We don't head through to Glasgow very often, so when we do its usually for a gig, and this time it was an amazing one. So we thought we would make a wee weekend of it as well, spend the night and head out to sunny Troon to see Darren and Mhairi for the weekend after. It was an amazing gig and everyone in the bands was nice enough to listen to all of the shite we were talking. So that was great. It was really cool to be able to see and say hello and cheers for everything. So I hope they had as much fun playing as we did dancing, singing and drinking along with them. 

As you can see from the last picture we were feeling it the next day but it was definitely worth it. Lemonades all round.
