Thanks Paulatic,
I had the day revolving around getting some refreshments at the Buddhist center. Other than a caravan park with awful reviews there did not seem a lot of choice for 20 miles in either direction

Paulatic,
I took your advice. The Buddhist place had the painters in , I did stop for photos. The caravan park mentioned, was just a little shop they were not serving hot drinks.
The Eskdalemuir Community Hub was all you could want .Had an interesting chat with a couple there that were riding a tandem .I did not see as many riders on route as I thought I would .
During the whole route there were very few areas where I got into a rhythm and made good progress but this area was one of them .
