Maybe someone can tell me what this lovely orange flower is?
The picture was taken on Alcatraz island.


Love in a coffee cup!

Glas Maol and Creag Leacach

A late start (!) but still managed 2 munros today....

Photohunt - miniature

A bit of a cheat this week!
I've posted this picture of Goatfell across Brodick bay on the Island of Arran, the reason being that Arran is sometimes referred to as "Scotland in miniature" :-)

I wonder.......

The kids are off to their dad's for the weekend, and the weather forecast looks good for Saturday.
Where should we go?
Up another hill?
A coastal walk for a change?
Hmmmmm........................?

Ben Chonzie revisited

We set off today in cold grey cloud, and burst into beautiful sunshine at around 2000ft.
A lovely day out.

How did that happen?

The BF and I have been together for 3 years!
That wasn't the plan.
Let me explain. We met a few months after my 17 year marriage had ended. I was persuaded to go on a date with him. I was dubious. I didn't want to leap into another relationship (and neither, as it turned out, did he). But we went out, we had fun, we laughed a lot (something that had been missing in both of our lives for quite a while), and we carried on going out, having fun, and laughing. He met my boys and I met his daughter and his mum. We all got on. We started spending more time together and going on holidays......and so it went on.
And three years later, here we are!
What was supposed to be "just a bit of fun" has turned into "a relationship".
We both still have our own space. We spend more time apart than together. But it seems to work.
I have had so much fun in the last 3 years.....I think I might stick with him a while longer............;-)
