Our Wee Smart Car — Fan Of… #204

This week’s Fan Of… is our wee Smart Car, Grogu.

We’ve been without a car for pretty much 12 years now & been happy with our choice. Through the use of our trolleys & our e-bikes & trailer, we’ve been able to manage shopping & travel quite happily. Recently though, the cost of hiring a car to do longer journeys has more than doubled, adding a substantial cost to any holidays. We have also pretty much visited all the places that are within a feasible day’s cycle once you take photo stops & breaks into account.

Ayr Beach — Fan Of… #202

Hi all 😁 Feel free to join in this weekly challenge whenever you find yourself thinking, “I’m a fan of…” (see below for how-to).

This week’s Fan Of… is Ayr Beach. Ayr & its beach sit on the west coast of Scotland, at the southern end of the Clyde Estuary. Across the water from Ayr is the Isle of Arran & beyond that, the Mull of Kintyre. The day we visited was sunny but cold & windy; a great day for a walk on the beach. Other photos from our visit will feature in other posts.

They were very quiet at 0700 in the morning! This first shot of Susan on one of the park benches is my post for Xingfumama’s Pull Up a Seat challenge.

Coffee by the Canal — Fan Of… #199

Hi all 😁 Feel free to join in this weekly challenge whenever you find yourself thinking, “I’m a fan of…” (see below for how-to).

This week’s Fan Of… is coffee by the canal (& a banana 😋). It was a bit of a dreich day but Stormy & I decided to head to the canal anyway. Although not the best of conditions, the sun came out (kind of) occasionally to brighten the day. I was able to stop long enough to enjoy my coffee & a banana for a bit of energy for the return journey (mostly up hill 🥵).
