This week the local artist behind KMG painted the other wall on Deeside Way beneath Great Southern Road. She did the opposite wall for us a couple of years ago in 2022. I have always thought it would be nice to continue the theme along both sides of the path so this year we applied for funding from Sustrans and were successful. Painting began on Monday and finished today.
The surfer is a nod to Aberdeen’s beach while the recumbent shows an elderly cyclist highlighting the accessibility of the railway line; the cargo bike with vegetables and fruit trees recognises the nearby community garden while the black dog is a local dog that was rescued from Romania.
I’m still feeling rotten but I think I’m on the way out as my nose is running like a faucet now. The others are all better so I think we’ll be back to normal by Christmas. I’ve spent a fair bit of the day in bed with Victoria keeping me company. Now she’s spending some quality time with Shakespeare.
Elizabeth made a yule log today and it looks amazing.
Last weekend we bought a Christmas pudding form Newton Dee. I’m more interested in the ceramic basin and cloth it comes with as that makes a good container for sourdough starter.
I removed the lid today to check it out and look what it says on the inside:
