You Ladies Go Over There And Play

We had our last day with Dorian today. It was wonderful. Well most of it. We had to take our rental car back to Edinburgh Airport and ride the bus back to St Andrews first and that took 4 hours. But, we started early, and we were back by noon.
Dorian met us at the bus depot and we went straight over to the  Himalaya Mini Golf course.This is part of the St Andrews Old Course and was originally intended to distract the ladies and keep them out of the men's hair as they played the real golf.

It's a lovely rolling course with no silly windmills or bank shots. You just have to putt on wildly rolling greens. Great fun. Sheelagh was really good on the long shots. But seemed to struggle with the 3 foot and under ones. She became a bit testy.





 Dorian pulled his game together and, to quote him, "Smoked the last nine." Lots of laughter and gentle ribbing went on.












After that we went to The Glasshouse Restaurant for or celebratory anniversary lunch. Very good.






We went to St Salvator's quad to see the lovely garden.




Then we went to the Topping Book Store which Sheelagh declared to be wonderful because they gave her tea. We just hung out and read before we went to St Salvator's Chapel for Evensong.















Then we took a cab back to our house to pack up for tomorrow's long train ride to see our good friends Malcolm and Delyth in Felixstowe.

See you there.
