Today I had the feeling that I had to get out and go for a walk. A whole week plus Saturday stuck inside, it was time to get out and walk for a while. 

So I pulled on the boots and headed for the lump that dominates the heart of the city. Weather was cold but pretty much dry so it was perfect. 


Took a different route up from normal, climbing some stairs from the foot of the hill. On the climb, there were some views to be had. 


Didn’t tarry long at the top as it was fairly busy and quit windy. Onwards and downwards it was to the loch then round the road and down further. 

From there I took Supertramp’s advice and took the long way home. 

Even for such a short walk, it was nice to get out. I feel so much the better for it.
