Saturday we picked up Robster, and headed off to Largs. On the way we stopped off at Newark Castle, before going bagging the trip pillar at Craigs Top, overlooking the Clyde and Greenock.
Moving on to Largs, we hit the charity shops, as I raked through the second hand books and cd's. I came away with a copy of Michael Palin's Sahara, and a cd of hippy-folky stuff by Melenie. A pint in a beer garden was followed up with a really nice curry, in an Indian's overlooking the promenade.
After eating, I bumped into one of my old physics lecturers on the seafront.
Leaving Largs, we headed to Portencross, to see the castle. It was closed when we got there, but the place itself is really nice. Sort of tiny little hamlet I'd love to live in (if only it had a pub!).
Sunday morning was reserved for climbing, and in the afternoon, we watched England get knocked out of the World Cup by Germany (snigger), then vegged out watching Zulu.
All in, a packed weekend. Roll on the next one.
