Summer Saturday

Ron and Sophie just ahead on the path.

'Different from the norm' has always intrigued me.

This gentleman is no exception. He lives very near this park and

is usually sitting on a low wall at the entrance......with his cassette player.

Today however he was walking into the park with his music 'just-a-blasting'.

He usually plays Scottish/Irish folk pieces....ones that make you want to dance!

He was just behind us, so I stopped and asked him if I could take his picture.

He said it was okay. 

He stopped and posed. 

I asked him his name and he said it was Ron. 

I asked if he was Scottish and if that was why he played this type of music. 

He replied that his father was English.

Then he said that this (his walk) was as far as he usually goes.

He turned and headed back towards the entrance.
