The second half of the week -

- just flew by: after that post from Berwick, I didn't switch my computer on again. The next day (Wednesday. I think) we crossed the border, dipped into Eyemouth but didn't stay, lunched at St Abbs and went on to explore Dunbar a bit more. Thursday was our last day on the island, so a last change to do all the things we hadn't yet done: I spent the morning on the beach by St Cuthbert's island, listening to the seals singing, and the afternoon orchid spotting in the nearer reaches of the nature reserve. I didn't go far at all, but my knee is still complaining (get used to it, knee, we need to walk more). All three pubs were fully booked, so we dined on takeaway paëlla from the Ship, and unfolded the table indoors, because it was raining (first meal of the holiday not eaten at the table on the patio). It was still raining this morning, and a cold, mean wind, so we didn't linger on the journey home; a visit to the farm shop at Blagdon, and home to lunch.

I took many, many pictures, of course. Here's St Cuthbert's island in a sea of daisies:
