A day of two villages

The forecast told us that today would be rainy, so we planned a visit to the Fisheries Museum in Anstruther (with simultaneous car charging); in fact it was gloriously sunny, so we took the opportunity to walk around Pittenweem. There's a street that runs along the Harbour, and there's the High Street, where there are shops and cafés, though not many of each. Mostly we took notes, for future purchases, but we did buy a newspaper, and a light-pull in the shape of a seagull. The two streets are connected by many steep and narrow wynds:

This is St Fillan's Cave, in Cove Wynd, our route up to the High Street at the start of our circuit.

By the time we were back at our starting point, I was feeling that I had had, by my current feeble standards, a good walk. The sun was not only bright, it was hot, and I was ready to do something less strenuous. We still wanted to charge the car, which we could do in Elie: why not do that, and look for lunch there? So I don't know how it came about that instead we used a charge point in (smaller, less commercial) St Monans, a place where we have failed to find refreshment in the past. It has a smokehouse with a great reputation and a restricted opening schedule. After some frustration we finally found a place on a little industrial estate (not as grim as that sounds, but not particularly scenic) which served us perfectly acceptable toasties. Then we drove arond in circles for a bit, failing to find our way to the windmill (which we suspect in any case is not open on Mondays) and having to squeeze past a Scottish Water van...

We came home via the farm shop. I have drunk water, I have drunk tea, I am feeling much better tempered. And it was a good morning, but I really don't know what happened to this afternoon.
