Getting near end of hols. Went a walk , left Mr D reading . Warmest day so far in the 70’s , better make the most of it back to gloomy and dreary Scotland weather. Went along the coast near the sea , on road to Prai Formosa and Camara DeLobos , Walked 5 .43 km but managed to jog last km. Slower today 55.11 another lot of hills. I’ll wish you a happy new year 🥳 (Feliz ano nouvo).

Feliz ano nouvo 2022 to you Doris8, I hope you are enjoying your holiday walks and short runs in Madeira, looks a lovely place to have a short winter break, you are correct about the weather in Scotland, its been a very dreary weather month this December, no exception today, New Year's Eve, it gets dark around 4pm and the sun doesn't rise until just before 9am, I wish you and Mr D (in English) A very happy New Year for 2022.

Thanks ALMorr yes it’s a lovely place , was t keen to come but booked 2 years ago and would have lost a lot of money if cancelled, glad I did. Don’t have too much whiskey 🥃

I lived in Sweden where my first 3 children were born...when I became Granny, Mormor seemed a way of keeping something Swedish alive.
