Auchinleck

Our tour through Auchinleck was made all the more interesting when Terry Seymour and his wife from the US turned up at the same time. He is a book collector and is at present making a catalogue of all the books that were in James Boswell’s personal library and had come to Scotland to measure up the size of Boswell’s library. He was a walking Google search engine on facts about Boswell and he and Sharon had a good time swapping stories. He was particularly interested to find that Sharon was a descendant. The library was a huge room and once contained over 2500 books. It was a special place and Sharon was happy to be here. More ghosts.  We drove in the afternoon to Dumfries,
