Wednesday Walk

Autumn late afternoon walk in seaside town in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hello Hello Hivians

Today we are going down to the town in Kirkcaldy in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Storm season to be here and I think Storm Debi is causing havoc. One blessing about gloomy pictures is that they can be quite dramatic!

These pictures today are all raw and unfiltered taken with Mrs T's Honor smartphone camera.

I had an ulterior motive getting her out on her day off, but more of that when we get there!

What you will see is just how dark it gets now early in the afternoon!

Do you see the blueish sky well that is the sky above the Old Kirk one of the old churches in Scotland. Oh Kirk I must remember that for my latest podcast (If anyone knows of word/culture differences between the UK and USA please drop them below as this podcast could do with some TLC... Transatlantic Accents: A Comedy Podcast

Sorry shameless plug here 🤣 for our latest episode 👇 Possibly the funniest two minutes of podcasting you will hear, if you don't laugh I will be surprised!

So let's get moving.

First it was time to take a wander down The Wynd and I do love this street...

Just look at the beautiful architecture. History of buildings don't you just love it?

I know I do, so let's see a little more...

The ulterior motive

Yes it was time to do a sneaky wee mystery shop.

Do you like garden peas or baked beans with your fried haddock?

Old school me has the peas ....

And of course to wash everything down you need ... 🍻

Free food and drink ~ What's not to love!

Do you know what is on the wagons?

Kirkcaldy was famous for it.

And we left the pub ar 3.50pm, oops a squint photo seems the beers were working 😎

It was actually a Friday so they have a few stalls on the High Street.

I know these people from the small town Burntisland that we used to live in, they have a shop there.

I like that they have their dog stall opposite the pdsa charity shop.

Of course Mrs T was in there whilst I turned around and took a pic of the fishmongers, after all we had just eaten white fish for dinner!

That is another place that has a shop in Burntisland.

Mrs T meanwhile had given me that hooked finger look.... I knew what that meant!

Yes it was her favourite charity shop Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland

Let's go for a wander inside

I knew we would be a while, so I may as well browse too!

First thing I was transported back to Madrid, one of favourite top 3 cities in the world and of course home to my second football team Real Madrid!

But look what I found next!

If you know me then you will know I spent many years working in many different countries in Africa. The above was Nigeria.

But when I turned to Gabon

Eddie Wildlife jumped out of the page, in the form of elephants, oh boy oh boy time to write some more of Archie I think!

This next page got me thinking of the crafty pair @wongi and @amiegeoffrey

I remember one of my friends who ran a bar would carry three crates of beer on her head and then on top of the beer crates was a whole bundle of firewood. She almost carried the same height as she was tall!

I must admit some of the customs in Africa I loved and blew me away the first time I saw them!

Reminiscing time it was!

Time to move and look at what dusk brings

It is a tale of two churchs...

This one Mrs T said take the pic because the light was really cool, unfortunately it didn't come out that well!

Up the hill we went, and the light is dropping fast in front of our eyes ....

Woah watch out for the taxi!

I shall leave you with nature's beauty inher raw unfiltered format.

This post is of course for #wednesdaywalk which was started by the wonderful @tattoodjay.

Thanks for visiting and enjoy the rest of your day!

All images used on this post are just so beautiful, coupled with that fact that I have a thing for cloud images 😍

And the lady with the sewing machine?😄. Well, I guess sewing and Crocheting are closely related.
@amiegeoffrey(74)· 1039d
Haha, I am glad I crossed your mind at the sight of that woman with a hand-sewing machine. Hehe

The pictures are all amazing and I love food especially when it's free.🤣

You have walked through really beautiful places, dear friend @tengolotodo, and the dishes chosen look exquisite, and could not be so tasty, they are the company of a creveza Thank you very much for sharing this Wednesday walking experience. have a great day

Ed! You spent years working in Africa?! Wowee. Learn something new everyday. Maybe that's why I resonate more with you than the average Scot: you're more open minded from so much exposure to others cultures. (?)

If only I was able to find a job in Europe back when I was still single, then I would likely also be wandering in that kind of street or view, or maybe I would be the one serving you that baked bean. !LOLZ !PIZZA
