Today’s guest picture comes from our son Tony in East Wemyss. Instead of yet another brilliant East Wemyss dawn, today’s picture shows one of Tony’s best friends chilling out. After the heavy rain of yesterday, we woke to a calmer and drier day today, and I was able to walk up to the Market PlaceContinue reading “Ten-tative”

Better late than never
Today’s guest picture comes from our friend Gavin. He has added to the collection of Scottish islands that he has visited by going to the Isle of Coll of our west coast. We had another dry and fine day here with quite a bit of sunshine. The active part of it started with first aContinue reading “Better late than never”
Taken for a ride
Today’s guest picture is an interior from Venetia’s visit to the Roman villa at The Newt. They have made a thorough job of the building. I managed to stick to my plan and do some Archive Group work after breakfast. Then the crossword had to wait as we cycled up to the tree nursery onContinue reading “Taken for a ride”
Our visitors arrive
Today’s guest picture is a composite of flower pictures taken in our garden by our granddaughter Matilda. She has brought her parents to stay with us for a few days. She took a lot of pictures and these were her favourites. She has a steady hand and a good eye. We had a cool greyContinue reading “Our visitors arrive”
Winding up the effort
Today’s guest picture comes from my sister Susan. She went to a concert on Saturday with my sister Mary and enjoyed the domed ceiling of the church, St Mary at Hill, where the concert was held. It was a decidedly cool, blustery and grey morning here today. Margaret came round for coffee, and we allContinue reading “Winding up the effort”
A stay at home day
Today’s guest picture is a second from my brother Andrew’s trip to King’s Lynn. He passed through Peterborough on his way, and sent me another nice bridge shot. I had a very uneventful time here today where it was cool under grey clouds for the most part. There was a little burst of sunshine inContinue reading “A stay at home day”
Visitors
Today’s guest picture comes from my brother Andrew who found himself inside a kiln on a visit to a pottery museum. After a couple of days of exciting excursions, I got no further from home than the parish church today. We cycled along to sing in the choir after breakfast with no hint of whatContinue reading “Visitors”
Practice makes nearly perfect
Today’s guest picture comes from my sister Susan who spotted this. She tells me that she had not touched a drop. We had a sunny day from dawn until dusk and the garden was once again filled with butterflies… …but I let them get on in peace today and when I wasn’t having coffee andContinue reading “Practice makes nearly perfect”
Out smarted
Today’s guest picture comes from Bruce who is in the north east of Scotland. He had a warm and sunny day yesterday when he visited Haddo House, a Scottish stately home located near Tarves in Aberdeenshire. We had a warm but far from sunny morning here as the rain made its presence felt. I wasContinue reading “Out smarted”
Still no sign of the sun
Today’s guest picture comes from my Newcastle correspondent Fiona’s visit to the Netherlands. She and her family camped beside the river Vecht. She tells me that she passed up the opportunity to swim in its welcoming waters. We had plenty of water on hand today but most of it was coming directly from the skyContinue reading “Still no sign of the sun”
