Flying by.

As soon as you comment about something on the blog 'things' mysteriously happen. An overly friendly salesman from the BMW garage phones to say the new car will arrive in the UK  tomorrow and transportation will be 'expedited' so that it arrives in Scotland by next week. We 'tentatively'  arrange to collect it from the dealers on Tuesday. I think of making a snide comment about the experience to date being a great advert for the Chinese car industry but keep this thought to myself.

Term time rushing by. Exams now getting perilously close.  A throng of determined looking teens head along the pavement from the lecture halls towards the library. Usually, the library is a quiet place. Now it's bursting at the seams with panicking youngsters wishing they hadn't partied quite as hard. Looking through the windows I'd reckon there must be a couple of thousand of them in there. 

A few clouds offshore but ( so far ) no sign of snow on this side of the bay.

We wander down to find what the construction work next to the R&A is all about. Our neighbours Bridge Club information was almost right. Scottish Water are indeed building a new water main. This will supposedly be completed and operational within three months. Angus wonders whether three months will become six months or a year. Play on the Old Course it is claimed will not be interrupted.
