Brambles from Inverlael

Today the weather was forecast to be showery so we went for a walk at Inverlael Forest, thinking that the trees would provide us with some shelter while we took some exercise. It did rain a little bit at the start of the walk but it gradually became drier and turned into a nice sunny day. James, Heather and Ewan gathered brambles for our dessert tonight. In the afternoon we all went for a stroll around the village in the sunshine. We walked round the bull park and through the campsite to West Shore Street and had tea and cake sitting outside Tea by the Sea. We went to both bookshops, and even browsed in a couple of gift shops, before drinks at the Ceilidh Place. We had got a side of hot smoked trout for dinner and served it very simply with baby new potatoes and asparagus, and garlic aioli. Meanwhile James had made apple and bramble crumble with the blackberries from Inverlael Forest and it was very tasty. A relaxing evening of chat and laughter ensued.
