It was in fact mid to late afternoon, but there was no way of telling by the light, other than about an hour later it started getting dark.<BR/><BR/><B>Bstrong</B> - you wouldn't have been able to sit for long without freezing your butt off. Part of the loch round the corner was still covered in ice from all the frosty mornings and freezing fog we've had. It had only risen to one or two degrees above freezing.<BR/><BR/><B>Asher</B> - thank you.<BR/><BR/><B>Andraste</B> - there's nothing round here haunted that I'm aware of. Castle Douglas is a small town, rather than an actual Castle. The local castle is Threave Castle which is a ruin and has been for a few hundred years, but there are no local legends of it being haunted as far as I know. I'm sure the local tourist board would be the first to play it up if there was!<BR/><BR/><B>Gyrobo</B> - getting a lot where you are then?Kim Ayreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02656677501116622953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15322620.post-1132714642411533382005-11-23T02:57:00.000+00:002005-11-23T02:57:00.000+00:00I long for a day without rain.
