The Early Worm

I woke up at about 3am USA time but 9am back in bonny Scotland. so considering jet lag I thought that wasn't bad.
by 7am I walked round to the local Starbucks and had a decaff skinny latte and a bagel with cream cheese. hmmm
On the way round there the parking lot was black with large birds walking about, the very noisy birds shrieked, and swooped from the trees all around too, and with a pink sky background made quite a sight,
I had left the rest of the household enjoying their beauty sleep , while at that early hour the coffee shop was busy with people on laptops, bikers and runners. the staff were all dressed up for Halloween.
I tiptoed back not to wake folk up.
