The backdrop is Renfrewshire, Rosa. I was going to say not a lot happens there. Then I remembered I went to university there. LOL. Thanks for your very kind comment. Cheers, Joe

Yes, Peggy, I was at the Fairy Trail with Anne, the lady, who started the thing off. She was attaching the giant toadstool to a tree, when we noticed this sailing ship coming down the River Clyde. It was lovely watching the ship sailing past. Thanks for your very kind comment. All the best, Joe
