Given this dramatic headline - the Loch Ness Monster photographed yet again - I was saying to Captain B that maybe he could take a photo of a mysterious creature swimming across our own tiny loch - see his photo of it above - of the Pond, not the Monster, as yet.
The Oyster Pond Monster will become notorious for nibbling the toes of reckless paddlers, and ruthlessly denting pedalos. But I want to make sure we have the tea shop concession before Col manages to find it and capture it with his camera.
I think our sleepy little seaside town would do well with a modest version of the Loch Ness Monster to attract the coach parties in their droves. The Loch Next Monster perhaps? Oystie?
However, should our Pond contain no monster... which I suppose is a possibility... then that is another money-making scheme gone for a burton, and I am wittering on pointlessly about nothing (which is always a possibility).
In the meantime, I would do infinitely better to concentrate on what we learnt at Sunday's Zoom meeting.
Imitate Jesus by Serving Others
“There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving.”—ACTS 20:35.

As a damaged child of disobedient Adam, I know I am set on selfish. And I wish I wasn't. But, one day, if I keep going...
Monday bank holiday dawned grey and overcast (the sort of weather I secretly enjoy). It was not a day of great achievements, but I did get a card off to Darren, one to another friend in hospital, and a pressie off to Someone Else. And on Monday I had the usual Zoom call with my siblings - minus the Oz Branch, as they were busy helping to move their student children out of a flat.
