The Hobbits
Visited Wicker Man country today. Stopping off first in Dumfries for a cup of tea and a scone, and a quick visit to buy Stephen Fry's second volume of his autobiography.
On the way, we stopped at Wigtown, Scotland's national book town. Unfortunately we arrived at closing time and did not get a chance to browse.
The weather was against us, the first time we have encountered bad weather. We found a car park and walked the mile to St Ninian's Cave, a location used at the end of the Wicker Man where Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) finally finds Rowan Morrison. The woods leading to the beach, where the cave is located, is home to a colony of pheasants who lead the way.
