Brunch with T at Roots & Seeds. Joined by K, M and Lowenna, for Fife Pride. On the High St, the Saturday market was blowing away as the winds got up and we had to emergency hold down some awnings just as the parade was coming round the corner. Excellent energy all day. I bumped into most people I know at some point. Hung out at the queercaldy maker fare in Century. Home for beach walkies, tea, and dozing.

A long walk along the Water of Leith, with a detour to Green Bite Cafe. Tara made many friends, and frolicked in the water. At Leith Market, we met M and Lowenna. I bought much vegan cheese and not-pork pies (from Earthy and Kama) then we had more lunch in the Sly Fox. Tara and Lowenna bring their own special blend of chaos, sweetness, and antagonism to any outings.
We walked along the Water of Leith some more, then sat in a dog-filled park for a while as Lowenna joined a pack. Tara was bemused by all of the bigger dogs running around, and settled for guarding our perimeter and asserting her boundaries with yaps.

A weekend with K and Lowenna. We threw the ball in the park and walked around the local woods; walked in the Pentlands; and trekked across town to Castaway Coffee for a treat. Lowenna is slimy.
Afternoon visit with Wenna.
Another trip to the Aberdour Hotel for the seasonal menu, this time with K, M and Lowenna. We went for a beach frolic afterwards and Lowenna got soaking wet and found a big stick.
Stayed with Wenna so I could catch a train from Edinburgh the next day. Eventually train delays meant I gave up and went home, but not before lunch in Holy Cow.
A small writing retreat. Lowenna/void was very helpful. She also took excessive mud baths. And I painted a ceiling.

This month was too busy to keep on top of posting, so I've lumped them into one as best I can.

Life oriented around Tara's walkies and mealtimes. The weather in Edinburgh was lovely. Did Co-op work, and read, and enjoyed the company of Tara's ridiculous furry family who live next door.
Went to Falkirk to see J, F, E&E on one afternoon. Met M and Lowenna in town for dinner on another. And spent an afternoon at Rhyze anarchist mushroom co-operative, for a talk about radical mycology.
Ate so much good stuff. The new Henderson's is fabulous. Discovered #fish and their full vegan chippy menu. But my new favourite is the very dog-keen Chapter One Coffee Shop!
