It has been an almost Spring like week, with some lovely sunshine although a rather chill wind which reminds us that it’s still March. We went for a very pleasant 8 km walk around Chatelherault Country Park; the usual walk to Green Bridge and then back on the other side of the river past the Cadzow Oaks. One evening we decided to watch The Brutalist, which recently won the Oscar for best picture. Oh dear oh dear, it was very depressing and very long. It had some merits and I realise that it was meant to represent the experience of mid twentieth century immigrants to the US, but it was grim and I don’t really like brutalist architecture anyway so that didn’t help!
Yesterday we went over to Davie and Chanel’s garden where Davie and James worked very hard to build two raised beds for growing vegetables. They look extremely well made and Davie is going to paint them and line them before filling them with soil. It was another fine but chilly day so I spent some time in the garden and some time in the house playing with gorgeous wee Harris. He is hilarious! He was hunting me when I was sitting on the couch and every time I looked round he would stop still, then resume his prowl towards me when I looked away! Skye kept a low profile; she uses the cat flap now so she can come and go as she pleases (it’s still too soon for Harris to be allowed outside.) At one point when I was sitting on the couch she came into the room and walked past me, then she glanced at me and did the most enormous double take when she realised that I was not Chanel! It was so funny. I got lunch in for the workers and by mid afternoon the boys had finished their work and put the planters in place.
