  • Morning all - including Andy, hello!  I've not been on here long so returning posters are new friends.  image

    Off to Newcastle this afternoon to see my sister (and cadge a bed for the night) before tomorrow's concert.  Then train to Oban, B&B, ferry to island where our cottage is, to do Stuff for the rest of the month.  I'm very excited - though a bit guilty since OH is mooching round the house with a chest infection.  image  He's getting better though. 

    Not sure if I'll be able to get internet access more than a couple of times in the next month so if I disappear for a bit, you'll know where I am...  I'll be looking out of the front door at this view...  image

     ...though as you can see, the garden (in which you stand to look at this) could do with some attention...

    and I suspect it may look more like this when I'm there this time

     (typical November weather, very high tide, gate destroyed by bullocks!)

    So... have a good month, fellow Forkers!

    Byeee...  image

    You know, I looked at that gate and thought how unusual it was. Kind of rustic. I think it looks ok in that situation. I don't suppose it's good for keeping bullocks out though.image

    Aye Liri - you'll need to nail everything down up there now...including yer wellies image

    But when we get the weather ...nowhere on earth can compare image 

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    All fixed Dove - nice and quick. Fortunately didn't need the second part so that saved me a fair bit  image

    I sound like a stereotypical mean Scot don't I? image

    I'll get on with all your washing up now....image

  • Chicky, Dove is was really very enjoyable. I'm sure he must be touring. 

    Fairy good luck with the boiler. Hope not too many pennies.

    Great pics Liri.    Had to read the bit by the gate twice lol, didn't read bullocksimage

  • Ooh its November. Pinch punch!

    White Rabbits - yes it is the first of a new month.  We are now officially all allowed to use the C word.  With Christmas just around the corner will need to think about getting the sprouts on soon (are there any other TOG's on here I wonder). 

    Sorry I missed the party last night wasn't feeling up to it had an early night and the cold is now much better.  Hoping to get out and spike a bit more of the lawn and empty a few more pots.

    Didn't have a single trick or treater last night so large tin of sticky sweets still intact.  Don't like them myself (I'm a chocolate girl) so if anyone fancies dipping in help yourself.

    Popping off to have a look around catch up with you all later.
