Not quite 87 hours in Torridon


The March weather has gone a bit bonkers in Scotland - lions and lambs flying in and out and in and out again like nobody's business. So I trust you appreciate the amount of rain, hail, sleet and wind endured to capture on camera the occasional moments of brightness in the Torridon area last weekend.

And I do hope you liked the picture of the Highland Coos searching for the pot of gold. I rarely approve of including photos of non-dog species on this blog, but having first successfully negotiated extra treats, I decided to allow Gail just the one.

Yes, I know what you're thinking. Thank goodness this country has at least one canny negotiator...

  1. I hope the cows found that pot of gold... or a terrier who wandered through that beautiful part of your country ;O)

  3. Your header picture looks positively spring-like, Bertie. Did you have rush back indoors afterwards to get warm?

  13. While we think it was a lovely rainbow, it would have been better with you or the pot of gold, if it was in our yard so we could buy 87 million treats.
