Good morning Lads & Lassies,a dull cloudy one here,so a stay at Home day for Me doing a cook-up for the freezer…hope All are well,xx
Afternoon, Weather’s crap… Again, went to the pool, then The Front, then Tesco, been home ever since. I can’t settle to anything at all, when I used to feel like this Dageus and I usually got in the car and drove over to Strathy Bay for an hour or so, messed about in the Sea Caves and sat on the big rocks together watching the waves crash in, it’s a wild place for such a wee Bay, but it cleared my head and I felt better. I am nervous of going there on my own, am I being silly?
Quiet day. Headache. Cats (or rather, one elderly one in particular) has decided that his needs throughout the night were far more important that mine. So, am tired!
Good morning. Sunnny and a cold wind here this morning. Will take a chance and hang towels out on the line. Then the hairdressers and food shopping, cupboards are getting bare again.
Morning, Showers n Sunny Spells for us along with a strengthening wind…Crap, I hate windy weather. Been to the pool ect and just catching up around the house. Need to do an end of season gut n clean up in the greenhouse but just not in the mood today.
Enjoy your day everyone. ![]()
Good Afternoon People,a heavy shower of rain prevented Me from giving the grass its last cut of the Year,so mower back in the shed for now,…Have the heating on as it’s chilly too.
Had some side effects from the Winter jags last week,woke up shivering with flu-like symptoms which lasted a couple of days,same thing happened with the very first covid jab years ago,but no side effects in the last few years since then.
Take care All,x
The light is autumnal, but the temperature is 18-20, so it’s all a bit odd.
Anyway, have done my shopping trips for the day and am going to have a nap before getting stuff ready for tea later and doing some siliconing in the bathroom.
Hope you are all well. ![]()
Morning, Blimey it’s chilly today, got the fleece on and still a bit shivery. Grooming the Clydes this morning after a short hack around the farm roads, and an afternoon with my online jigsaws along with an audio book planned… Oh Yes it’s that time of year again. Even Bonnie was not for coming out, and is looking for cuddles…Soft thing.
Good morning all You good People who are living in the REAL World and not a fantasy one ![]()
I’m off into Town for a gallivant around the shops to find a Silver Wedding Anniversary gift for My youngest Daughter and Her Husband,
Keep it real Folks xx
Good afternoon. Was going to meet one of my friends for lunch today but she had to cancel, we’ll meet up on Saturday. Looks windy out there so it will be the winter coat will being looked out.
Haven’t done much today, or yesterday … was feeling a little under the weather.
By tomorrow I know I’ll be back to my usual perky self.

I learnt a new word today … plook.
And now I have too ![]()
Here’s another one for You…mawkit. ![]()
You have some great sounding words … weird but really good.
Aye, another Scottish word. How about glaikit ?
I love it … they all sound so unusual. I’ll never remember them though.
Chic Murray was a Scots comedian and narrator. I liked this:
"He cut a sappy sucker from the muckle rodden-tree,
He trimmed it, an’ he wet it, an’ he thumped it on his knee;
He never heard the teuchat when the harrow broke her eggs,
He missed the craggit heron nabbin’ puddocks in the seggs,
He forgot to hound the collie at the cattle when they strayed,
But you should hae seen the whistle that the wee herd made!
Ah think Ye’d huv tae be a ‘Teuchter’ tae understaund that wan Mac ![]()
Oh, I know what a teuchter but I’m not one of those !!
There are discussions which honorary members of this thread really do need to duck out of ![]()
