Today’s guest picture goes to show that the sun continues to shine in East Wemyss. You have to be up at six o’clock in the morning though, as our son Tony was yesterday, if you want to catch views like this. It was a first rate morning for cycling here today, dry, warm and withContinue reading “A visit to hospital”

Finally!
Today’s guest picture comes from South Africa. Langholm exile Tom tells me that they are slipping into autumn there, but in the meantime, his bottlebrush tree is going very well. A pleasantly warm spring day here greatly helped with our continuing recovery. All the same, we didn’t do a lot in the morning, although theContinue reading “Finally!”
Just one shade of grey
Today’s guest picture, another from Stephen’s Queen Charlotte Sound hike in New Zealand, was specially chosen to add a splash of colour to a very grey day here. It was raining when we got up, and it is probably still raining as I write this in the evening, but I am not going out toContinue reading “Just one shade of grey”
Two good sings and more good signs
Today’s guest picture comes from our friend Gavin. Taken exactly 12 years ago to the day, his picture shows Mrs Tootlepedal and Gavin’s granddaughter, Hannah hunting for frogs when they both were young. We had dry and calm weather when we cycled to church to sing with the church choir this morning. Choir numbers (7)Continue reading “Two good sings and more good signs”
Sandy takes the cake
Today’s guest picture comes from our friend Sandy. After some air fryer conversation over coffee today, he went home and cooked a cake in his. With excellent results. He says that it tastes as good as it looks. After yesterday’s good weather, it was back to normal service with a grey and windy day hereContinue reading “Sandy takes the cake”
An improving day
As we had a very wet and grey morning here, I am pleased to have an East Wemyss dawn as the guest picture of the day by way of a contrast. Tony was up early again. It was so wet here in the morning that Dropscone came round in his car for coffee instead ofContinue reading “An improving day”
Fame at last.
Today’s guest picture comes from my walking friend Mark. It shows a curious old gentleman who went with him on a walk yesterday. We were up and away promptly after breakfast when we cycled up to join the volunteers at the Tarras Valley Nature Reserve tree nursery. The last few trays of seedlings needed toContinue reading “Fame at last.”
A slow day
Today’s guest picture comes from Jane, the wife of our ex-minister Scott. They are currently in Menton on the Cote d’Azure where she saw the sun rising over the Italy this morning. I can give Menton no higher praise than by saying it is obviously nearly as good as East Wemyss. Jane remarks that itContinue reading “A slow day”
Two choirs and a stroll
Today’s guest picture is another from our friend Gavin’s trip to the Isle of Coll. They do good beaches on Coll. This is Crossapol Bay. The day here started well with a set of good old fashioned hymns at the church service, with the added benefits of easy bass parts for me to sing. WithContinue reading “Two choirs and a stroll”
A really interesting outing
Today’s guest picture is another from my brother Andrew and his outing to Scarborough with my two older sisters. They had excellent weather today. We had a lovely day here too which was lucky as Kat, the volunteer leader for the Tarras Valley Nature Reserve, had organised an outing for us. We were going toContinue reading “A really interesting outing”
