I’ve just sat down for a wee rest and it’s 8pm. I’m shattered. I’ve been on my feet since 6am!

I took the dogs out first thing for a jog that ended up just being a walk. It was really light rain. It’s actually rained on and off all day, so different from the scorching sun of yesterday. I just didn’t have the energy to jog! I’ve been tired this week!

Look how tall this grass is behind me in the field!! It really is just actual grass… how is that possible?!?!

When did grass get so high?!

I also spotted my first real thistles this morning. I’m hoping they will be pretty special up in the Highlands!

These ones are just at the side of the road or just inside the field. Not the best photos but still beautiful!

Then we met these guys!

Thought this next one looks a bit intimidating.

The little gift shop was lovely today. Gayle has done a complete reshuffle and got lots of lovely new stock in. In-keeping with the thistle theme, Lindsay did a beautiful window.

We were really busy!

As soon as I got home I’ve been running round trying to get everything together and packing the van. I’ve got the fridge full and lots of stuff into the dining room ready to go in at the last minute. Still loads to do and there’s always something we forget.

The forecast is all over the place so we have to cover all seasons!

So as usual can’t guarantee signal to be able to blog so will see how it goes. I’m hoping to be in the sea a lot. The campsite we are staying on has free use of paddle boards and kayaks. I have one of Claire’s books with me and I’m taking some crochet. Hoping to just chill and relax.

HOLIDAYS!!!

Stay safe everyone 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙
