Sunday at Dad's

[Sunday 19th June]
I spent a large part of the daytime making a good dent into the corrections on my thesis, and was generally very pleased with myself! Towards the end of the afternoon we headed out to take Yates (a black labrador/retriever cross who has recently taken up residence at my Dad's house) down to the beach for a bit of a run. Although officially retired - he's an ex guide dog - he is still full of energy, and seemed almost impossible to tire out, no matter how many times we kept throwing that stick for him.
In the evening we went out for dinner to my Dad's local - The Lion. This has a downright excellent selection of single malts, at extremely reasonable prices. I kicked off with a regular 12 year old Clynelish, delightfully briney, and then indulged myself in a 21 year old cask strength Caol Ila. Marvellous - and the food was pretty good too (I had canneloni I think).
