Scottish Wedding

Stumbled upon someones wedding today and what was lovely is that 98% of the male guests were wearing kilts - how nice. Luckily they realised I was not trying to sneak a peek under their kilts!!!

Shapely Curvaceous Cars & Legs - what more could a girl ask for?!

Also, the cars were beautiful, classic Reilly's

And of course, they had the traditional piper which nearly every Scottish wedding has and would not be the same without!

ELVI

Well Hip, Hip, Hooray - a parade of Elvi - Thank you very much!

And to top the night, we had the best Pizza, but will save that for another post. I need to savour this Friday - the party started almost as soon as I got up, not literally, but it has been an incredible day - yey (hope this continues)!!!

I know this happened of Friday, but how can you not share a parade of Elvi, it just makes you smile.....

Down to the seaside to......

This has been a fantastic Friday evening. We initially took Marvin & Carly to the seaside and saw a large group of people entering into the sea to swim!

Turns out this lovely lady said they go swimming along the coast line. I am just glad I captured it as it looked so odd to see and the light was fantastic, wonder what shots I would have gotten from a real camera!

I got some great photos of Dexter, Marvin & Carly too, but will post them separately, together with other posts with a group of Elvi (if that is the plural of Elvis)! Fantastic!

Park Life & out from behind the camera!

God in a bottle!

Edinburgh has some great antique shops, one of my favourites being The Thrie Estaits in Dundas Street as it is really quite quirky (bit like me at times!).

We have all heard of people putting messages in bottles, and ships in bottles.... but God in a bottle - whoa, indeed! Well here is an example of one:-

Usually made by Sailors, Farmers, Lumber Men and Prisoners who had time on their hands!

"God in a Bottle" (actual title) are relatively rare folk art as most made ships in bottles! Wonder what sort of message they were sending or hoping to receive, bottle and keep doing this, and which of these tradesmen made them - lots to think about eh!

For you Mummy!

It is Friday, I love this song and having not heard it for years heard it Saturday of last weekend as we drove to Glen Lyon (still trying to get all the amazing photographs on the blog but want to do it in a way that I think is befitting such an interesting place and not sound boring to anyone reading it other than me!)

It was on this very drive that we stopped off at a great little local post office/shop/cafe (one of the top 10 cafes apparently in the countryside of the UK not that we knew that until some other tourist came in and said "do you know you were featured in the Guardian (UK newspaper) as being one of the Top 10 cafes in the countryside"? "No" was the owners surprise, and either did we and we smiled and said congratulations!). Anyway, whilst waiting for the homemade soup (their Lentil & Lemon soup was really delicious), Dexter picked me some flowers and brought them to me when I called to him and Anders to say it was just being brought to the table.

Oh how I just love this little lovely!

I love him, I love him, I love him!

How could I not.

This little spot in the Scottish country is full of wildlife, red squirrels, deer, butterflies, insects and of course birds, an array of beautiful, sweetly singing birds who actually get quite close to you!

As a result, at this little tranquil haven, even the birds get to have a picnic too with leftovers - it is just so so very beautiful there and so are the birds.

Not sure what we are doing this weekend, but can't wait!
