Had a wee jaunt down to the borders to visit Chrissy and deliver her prize from the last Clan Cairn Terrier meet. Met the wonderful Issy again and was introduced to Alba (who I swear is a teddy bear in disguise)
We made the most of the gorgeous weather yesterday and finished the greenhouse. I also found an alternative use for it...it's now my new studio. Perfect lighting and surrounded by plants and fruit I grow myself...it's my happy place π₯°
Sooo the big secret is out...i now have a website!

We've been on a wee project that turned into a bit of a labour of love. I couldnt live with the orange pine in our caravan so we decided to redecorate. Here's the before and after pics

First bloom of the year
We took the boys to the clan cairn terrier fun day today in Alva. What a great morning out, kudos to the organisers. Of course there were things to buy and i found my perfect combination of my favourite three things....old books, dogs, and art. Found a book from 1937 called Dogs Rough and Smooth. Check out these drawings
New car magnets have arrived!
This beautiful girl finally made it across 'the pond' to her family.
