Afternoon All, Been away with the dog and met up with some dog walkers I’d not seen in yonks. Soooooo, we caught up, then went and had a seat while the dogs had a grand time running and playing on the beach. 
My favourite type of dog walk these days. 
Nothing planned for this afternoon, may just snooze at the fire…Well, it’s Sunday afternoon. 
Good Afternoon Folks,a fine sunny one here so been busy moving plantpots etc’ around,
Boris Johnson has been spotted arriving for a weekend with the Queen at Balmoral.

Evening all can’t believe how warm it is. Went to see a friend. Walked to her house as I didn’t realise how hot it was then. We sat out in her garden drinking iced water to revive me! Phoned my Son to see if he could come and get me as couldn’t face the walk back.and luckily he did.
Going to do as little as possible tomorrow!

Good Morning Folks,and it is a very nice sunny one here,so got out early to the shops and the library before it gets too warm,…to be 26c later…enjoy it while it’s here 
Morning Everyone. Lovely here today but all change expected tomorrow. As it’s so nice and most of the tourists have, gone Himself is finishing a couple of hours early and we’re off for a good hack with the clydes, finishing with a donder along the beach…their favourite place.
Working in the garden till I get too hot then I’ll just sit in the shade for a while. Enjoy your day now. 
I like watching the Highland Vet series on TV. I think it comes from your neck of the woods Rox. Some stunning photography. I prefer it to the Yorkshire Vet series.

Scot that is our vet.
That’s not too bad, 10 out of 10, thanks May. I had already been awarded the title ‘honorary Scotsman’ a while back so am ‘getting there’. Quite good for a ‘southerner’ I guess so I had better order the kilt and sporran next!
Morning All, Well that’s the rain on and boy is it coming down. 
Good job I put my pots of begonias in the greenhouse last night or they would be wrecked altogether now. Just catching up with the house jobs today as it’s so wet, and dark. Dog is not too chuffed as he only got a shortish walk…Tough.
