That's not even worthy of comment in Orkney! LOL!<br /><br />HOping a friend can sort out the dust.

And sharp frosts at night. But yes it is extraordinary that we are basking in sunshine and blue skies while the rest of the UK is pretty gloomy. Even sister in Channel Islands is complaining of the cold and grey.Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-8424535763135787982013-03-30T19:37:07.041+00:002013-03-30T19:37:07.041+00:00Yes Button loves to come for a walk with me.

I try and avoid the road (even though it's not that busy) and keep to the beach and tracks.<br /><br />We've had Spring for the last few days here, but sharp frosts are night still.

However your weather is a bit different to our Edinburgh weather, so I'm quite happy to read about it.<br /><br />Poor you with the speck of dust. I have one on the lens of my big camera - I've taken it to be cleaned at a camera shop but it's reappeared. I did get some comments about the 'eagle' I managed to capture in one shot - it does look a bit like a bird in flight!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11269887100694066103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-30184941778047992782013-03-26T16:35:13.129+00:002013-03-26T16:35:13.129+00:00Isn't it perishing, Sian?

Still, you seem to get the sun when the rest of the UK doesn't, so I always known where to come for a glimpse of blue sky. :-) I do hope it warms up for us all soon.Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-39217732197999546142013-03-25T23:54:59.869+00:002013-03-25T23:54:59.869+00:00I marvel at your cat that goes for walks with you ...I marvel at your cat that goes for walks with you !
