Today's hack

[Caol Ila]

OH was on foot with the proper camera, so we got some okay photos, although I forgot to show him how to set the camera to 'sport.' Still, he did alright as horse photographer. I'm on the dark bay. Marching out alongside her much younger companion.

Looks like some nice tracks to ride along, not too muddy in the winter.

Lovely pictures and lovely area. Is that water or a long drop in the last picture ?

 

[cauda equina]

Lovely woods!
What's that poor old building?

Oh, Mugdock? What a beautiful horse

 

[Caol Ila]

Aye, it is Mugdock.

Lovely pictures and lovely area. Is that water or a long drop in the last picture ?

It's a wee pond. It does kind of look like a sheer cliff in that photo, doesn't it?

Lovely woods!
What's that poor old building?

It's a ruined castle. Probably falling down, hence the fence keeping people from exploring the ruins. There's another more intact castle in the park you can wander around.

Looks good. Is it busy these days? Keep meaning to box up.

 

[Caol Ila]

Not too bad. But I don't know what your definition of busy is. There are always people about but it never looks like Sauchiehall Street on a Saturday night, either.

The last time I was there it was mobbed and by mobbed I mean families, cyclists, joggers, dog walkers, Prams, kids playing football... it was mental. It is a country park but jings it definitely was a bit hairy at times, I think my guy didn’t really know which way to look so just got on with it! Are the tyre jumps all away? I think they may have been away the last time I was there but didn’t really pay much attention for said reasons above!

 

[Caol Ila]

The tyre jumps in the Khyber Field? I think they are there, but I haven't been in Khyber since March due to the bloody cows that moved there in the spring. By all accounts, the cows are also still in that field.

My horse ignores the cyclists, joggers, prams, etc. So I don't pay too much attention.
