Lured by the promise of the warmest and sunniest day of the year so far, we drove down through an initially rather misty Ayrshire to Troon beach for a walk. The sun soon came out and it was beautiful; it was nice to see lots of people enjoying the sunshine. We strolled along our usual route from the golf course into the centre of Troon and had French toast for lunch at the Venice café. Back at the beach James made a little fire with driftwood in the portable mesh fire pit that I gave him for his birthday and then he produced a surprise - marshmallows! We toasted them at the fire and they were delicious on this sunny afternoon.
Later we went to see Fish’s farewell tour at the O2 Academy in Glasgow. He promised that it really was his farewell tour, “not like Elton John!” Fish (real name Derek Dick) started out in the band Marillion before going solo many years ago. We were upstairs which meant that we got seats, but the air was hot and rather stale up there by the end of the concert. The audience, including James, was very enthusiastic, however the music was just not my cup of tea. Good luck to Fish in his retirement!
