Poor show tonight

Had an indifferent day today,  weather was seriously hot which obviously did not suit me.   Took myself fr a walk and I  discovered that yesterday I had walked for miles and on my about turn point, another 40 mins walk, that I had actually only been less than ten minutes from the hotel.

Had been waiting all week for an excuse to dine in the hotel and tonight was the night, seafood buffet -  big disappointment,  best bit of the meal was sausage  !!!   Considering where we are and the quality of the seafood on offer in the nearby bars, restaurants,  a real let down.   Tried to make our feelings known but the Restaurant manager had very little English.

We then had to leave and get food elsewhere,  but the consolation was to go back to the small Cake shop nearby where we have had wonderful coffee and cake each evening,  The shop  MAPKPNT, nearby is owned by a lady Markrit, who has really looked after us.
Her 18 yr old son was with her tonight so we had a good blether.
 
Not sure if we are right or not,   but I thought we saw Carlie from Zest passing,  so we presumed that it was his boat anchored in the harbour !!!!!
makes a difference from Balloch and Loch Lomond !!
Heard from RGB  this morning,  massive blackout affecting Musselburgh, Tranent and Prestonpans on Thursday,   so much for decommissioning Cockenzie Power Station.
  If the Greens get their way w will be back in the dark ages before long.
