S loves cats and is always delighted to meet one as we don't have one ourselves.<br /><br />Fabulous cloud photo. Do you ever find that 20 minutes or more have gone by while you just sit and watch the huge shifting sky? I'm sure I would, if I lived in Orkney!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-21336858270645439832010-07-13T13:13:46.068+01:002010-07-13T13:13:46.068+01:00Blue Bird - We are lucky in Orkney as we have had ...Blue Bird - We are lucky in Orkney as we have had rain this summer, but in the South of the UK there is a drought and plants are stuggling to survive. I have some friends from London staying at the moment and they are marvelling at how green everything is in my garden!<br /><br />PurestGreen - thanks for stopping by! I had found you blog a few days ago and added a link. I'd wondered who created such a lovely blog, so I'm very pleased to meet you! Yes winter is a challenge here - but I am just revelling in the summer for now!!Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-78180648605770531162010-07-12T06:59:21.077+01:002010-07-12T06:59:21.077+01:00What a wonderful place to call home.

Wonderful blog! I enjoyed reading the ...Hello Sian! Wonderful blog! I enjoyed reading the lively description of the visits of guests. The photos are great: I wish we would have such "storms" coming, because we have a very unusual drought which is very demaging killing with heat and dry ground many beautiful plants.<br />Yeah, about watering? Restricted, shortage of water! The Island is surrounded with the Ocean and we have no water to spare the vegetation? So much for that.Julia/Blue bird :)Blue birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04396641802581928353noreply@blogger.com
