This week I have felt a very definite change in the way I'm feeling about life. My mind has definitely made an adjustment somehow and has stopped thinking 't...

If I was to have a headstone (which I won't) this is what mine would say. Those close to me will have heard me say it hundreds of times. 'So what's that got ...

We are so lucky to be able to watch this little family from our doorstep. The parents are on the go constantly feeding their rapidly growing babies and I jus...

I absolutely love seeing the geese taking their families out for an early morning swim, and watching how fast the babies are growing. My doorstep bluetit fam...

He had a mind of his own, and wasn't for posing with his owner. (I much prefer dogs!) He is a handsome chap though. I'm having a great time doing these doors...

When I posted this photo online a couple of days ago someone asked me what the pink things in the foreground were, and thought they were birds. That made me ...

When all I want to do is hug my children, I have to give myself a good shake and pull myself together. My 'children' (27 & 28) are healthy and safe, just a l...

It definitely pays to get up early! Yesterday I was off work on a Bank Holiday for the first time in 10 years, so sorry for not blogging. I did mean to, but ...

Oban - Barra. Since my pal Ali and I have had to cancel our holiday till next year, I thought I'd do a virtual holiday instead. Today we would have been head...

I've never stayed at home so much. It surprises me that I haven't had my usual itchy feet, but I'm glad to say that staying at home is good. How I feel for t...

This is more like our typical weather! Drippy dampness, with the hills hidden by a cloak of white mist, perfectly suited to the midges. How do they know the ...

Our house is at the head of a sea loch so we are always aware of the state of the tide. A quick glance out the window is all it takes. But when we saw this '...

We humans are amazing! We can adapt to whatever life throws at us, even if it is sometimes harder than others. My daily walks now include a bottle of hand ge...

Yesterday I had to go into the office in Oban to collect some things. It's only the second time I've been in there since 16th March and it felt strange. I lo...

Paragliding in the Himalayas was definitely the highlight of last year for me. My cheap travel insurance didn't cover 'adventure sports', so I didn't tell an...

It amused me that while half the nation's women are hunting for hair dye to cover up their greying hair during lockdown I found myself hunting for bleach to ...

And the sky was like this for a few minutes. It's going to be a long day though! You'd think after 8 hours working followed by a 2 hour, 6 mile walk, I'd be ...

I've been walking past this bench since my children were wee tots, and as you can see, it's been sitting there a lot longer than that. It sits outside 'the S...

As I photographed some of my precious little seedlings yesterday, it made me think of the 'Dig for Victory' campaign during the war. A timely thought for tod...

Did you look at the Fairy Moon last night? My friends at the riding school decided to have an adventure, and went off on a trek, ending with them crossing th...
