Getting wet
May. 7th, 2023 08:33 pmEvery week I check the descriptions Martin types into Flickr for his latest photos. Just got to this one:
"The east side of the southern end of the Seven Arches Viaduct in Monifieth viewed from in the Dighty Burn."
Yes, photo taken from _in_ the burn (river). He goes out on his walks wearing wellies and waterproof trousers, and usually ends up in the water!
