Tasty treats Dove. Always nice doc - I was chatting to a nice young lad, up for the holiday weekend, who'd come in from the Braemar side, had been bivvying and come over from Ben Macdui. He was hoping to camp again overnight on Cairngorm, but was wondering if he would get anywhere quiet with so many people coming up the 'pony track' to the summit. There was a nice tor just to the east which would have been good I reckon. I thought about including Macdui, but that's one I can certainly do from the same approach as yesterday. Did you read about the chap who's just compleated on Slioch? His name is Hugh Munro, and it's happened during the centenary of Munro's death. All very fitting. I thought of you when I saw which hill he'd picked for his final outing
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Hadn't seen that fairy. Nice story and what a great hill to finish on. I always assumed I would save Lomond till last, as it was the hill I had driven past the most.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Interesting discovery this evening ... because their eyes are at the top/sides of their heads, you can steer a frog using the same techniques as herding sheep ... ie standing behind them and moving slowly forward, sticking out your left arm to turn them right and your right arm to steer them left.
If you ever have to encourage a frog to leave your sitting room, cross the floor, then cross the dining area and leave by the back door without going under either the bookcase to its left or the sideboard on its right, you might be glad you know that 😊 😂 🐸
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
We also removed a Shield Bug from a bar of soap in the bathroom this evening ... what with the invasion of flying ants in the sitting room yesterday, our home is becoming a jungle 🙄 🤣

Another hot day. We went to Wells-Next-the Sea, explored the village and harbour and had lunch in a pub. Crab salad for me and pizza for him. Stopped at Tesco on the way home.
The driver's window of the car has stopped working. It was wide open because the air conditioning has also stopped working. OH will take it to a garage tomorrow.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Sleep well, Dove, and everyone.
