NBC have arrived in force to set up cameras for the college golf championship. One of the camera men informs us that they'll be broadcasting live for three full days. American college golf, which used to be an innocent low key affair, is now a billion dollar business . The Saudis and the UAE are big investors in the sport which may explain the sudden appearance of a brace of brightly coloured Lamborghinis in the practise range car park. This is the second year the championship has been run in St Andrews although we seem to have missed it altogether last year. All the hotels are once again full.

The water in the harbour calm enough to reflect the uninspiring 1960's block of flats .
We detour past the cathedral towards the Italian coffee shop for a restorative espresso. Away from the crowds of enthusiastic teens ( and their corporate sponsors ) gathering at the golf course this end of town is completely empty.

I love the smell of bees wax cables burning, but bees wax always reminds me of hearing old people saying "mind your own bees wax".
candles, not cables!
I grew up on a bee farm, on a massive scale.
We have the "Clash of the Holidays" over here in the US. The Halloween, Thanksgiving, and now Christmas decorations are all out in the stores. Your bees wax candle find reminds me of the saying, "Mind your own beeswax" that was popular in my childhood. Say it with a bit of attitude and people got the message.
Some of the local stores here have a small selection of Halloween items, so not something they celebrate here. Though perhaps it's just a town thing if you live in an apartment. We're out in the "sticks" here - all behind high walls, CCTV cameras and gates, so not attractive to the casual caller.
Do you think there will ever be a furry four-legged companion of your own, to accompany you on your walks?
Local honey - YUM! And the side benefit of being a good way to treat allergy symptoms in both humans and dogs. "Bill's Bees" recently left my area and my sinuses miss him and his bees!
Has the new e-car arrived at the LWHBD?
The garage still remains studiedly vague as to its delivery date. So much for German organization !
The growth of streaming services seems to have created a huge demand for all sorts of sports. I wonder whether you've ever seen Diving Dogs on ESPN?
