Thanks Arachnid....my 15 year old daughter is supposed to be doing a practice for her Duke of Edinburgh Silver award this weekend, which involves being dropped off in Callendar on Saturday morning and collected in Aberfeldy on Sunday aftenoon, during which time she must walk between the two places and camp up overnight....think it may have to be rescheduled :shock: :smurf:

Might be o.k. Foxy as most of the snow was at the top and not so much on the lower ground

The owl's a weather vane we have on top of our garden shed!!! :lol:
But what a good idea!! 8) Wonder if it could be hooked up somehow and when it's windy we could save on electricity!!! :wink:

Today we went for a walk round Beecraigs Loch

Didn't see any fish in the sky :cry:

Love the headless swans!
Aquatic hide and seek?

Wee turbines aren't such a daft idea. Round where my sis lives in Bristol they're quite common, even saw one on somebodys first floor flat window ledge.

Smell it?
I can smell it, That is a very evocative photo. Are no two coffee beans identical? You can see happy, sad and somewhere in the middle.
