There's a footpath that runs down a tunnel beside Jones' Hardware, round the back of the beast market, and down to the Loggin waterfall. It's a nice little shortcut back into town if you've been walking down the riverside path, as I was the other day. That is, it's a nice little shortcut if you have your machete with you - it's a narrow path, and it gets overgrown very quickly. One day earlier this year, the cow parsley was chest deep, and I picked a huge bunch of the stuff just to be able to get through (and very nice it looked in my big jug, too).
The other day, it wasn't quite so difficult to get through.
About half way along the path, I met Benji's people (Benji is a sheepdog cross, and one of Islay's friends). Colin had brought his garden shears with him, and he was chopping at the nettles at the side of the path.
