Day: August 9, 2020

Day 138 last nights sunset & a lovely surprise visit by the in-laws! Still scorching ☀️☀️

What a lovely night we had last night. Sat outside until about 10.45pm and only went inside as the dogs started to bark at a possible beastie under the wood pile 😬

Amazing dinner last night…. fish and boiled garden potatoes on the fire pit!

Bhru always likes to be comfy but never far away from the centre of attention
Was a beautiful sky… downside to living in a wee village is that all the sunset pics have overhead wires in them but hey… it’s our sunset! 🌄
Random cloud
Toasting my toes
Loved the shape of that log on the right with its dried out rings clearly visible (I don’t need any comments about dried out rings now either!)
Fast forward to this morning and it’s another beautiful day up here in sunny Scotland! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿☀️
Gnasher Avery playing with the ball again 🎾
Clematis coming on great, look at the colour in that!
These roses are still stunning
How cute is this wee weedy guy that appeared in front of the woodshed?! Lovely

Reminds me of a strange discussion with Mr A last night…. he called me back out to the garden after we’d gone in last night to see some strange red flowers that he’s only just noticed in the garden??? Intrigued….. hmm new flowers….. 🌺🌺🌺…. hope…. the hydrangea that I’ve showed on the blog hmmmm like pure hunners!!!!!

So, you do read the blog do you Craigie?!?!
This one?!?!?

Glad I rushed out…… 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Had a lovely surprise visit from the in-laws this morning. They are off on holiday this week but Craig’s shifts are crazy all week… maybe because he has an enquiry booker who’s making it her life’s work to keep him busy?!? 🤭😆

Doug & Helen sooooo know that they will be in the blog!
Grampa handing out treats!
Calaidh loves her Gran 💕
Bhru getting a look in with Doug gets Cookie “kisses on the nose”
Calaidh hiding in the shade
Are there treats on the empty chair?!?
Me and my shadow! Cookie follows Calaidh!
Where are they all, where did the other pups go?!

I found shade in the meadow garden Bhru says!

I’ve just had to pay to upgrade to WordPress Premium to get enough space to keep going with the blog. It’s amazing how they catch you. I’m not gonna give up now on day 138 and I suppose they know that… captive market.

Anyway, in COVID news, huge congrats to New Zealand for managing this so well. They have achieved 100 days without a new case.

Amazing news!
On the other hand the news I guess we all knew was coming…. I’ve seen loads already and plastic gloves 😥
In case you were worried that Freya isn’t in any photos… I’ve just found her hiding under the tree in the garden…. the wee love!

It’s only 14.49 and I’m going to publish this already for today. It’s glorious and I’m going to relax and enjoy it without my face in the phone all the time. I hope you are all enjoying this lovely weather. What a difference it makes on my mental health.

Stay safe everyone ☀️☀️☀️
