I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling.

Lovely picture Jude! Your practice is definitely paying off! 🙂
Sometimes I think you need misty conditions to really appreciate Scotland. Well, what I mean is that “misty” creates the right atmosphere.
Great picture!
Well, for certain, no one goes to Scotland because of the weather. That’s what the lovely lady at Visit Scotland told me as I asked for the best time to visit The Hebrides.
Beautiful capture, great to see that you and Jo had such a fine time together. 🙂
Cheers!
I had never heard of one either, until just now I googled it and … there is indeed a drink called that. “Scotch Mist (drink), a drink with 2oz of Scotch Whisky, ice and a lemon peel”. One never ceases to learn, doesn’t one, in the modern world with the Internet? 😉 To my mind, though, Scotch over ice and with a lemon peel means spoiling a good whisky. 😉
Beauty’s easy to find in the right company, Jude. We didn’t do so bad 🙂 🙂 Nice shot! I have a spider’s webby one somewhere??? Who knows 🙂 Hope you’ve had a great day. A little more relaxed than yesterday?
This is lovely and I’m so glad you had a good day, anything else wouldn’t have been possible though. Now get the OH to give you a foot massage then back out with your camera!

It is a lot easier now the shutter system has been replaced!

Not when you can’t see more than 100 yards in front of you! But I know what you mean 🙂
However, no mist today!

Love this!!
I keep thinking that “Scotch Mist” sounds more like a drink than Scottish weather. 😉
Have a great time up there,
Pit
Thanks Pit – no doubt there is a drink called that somewhere!

You’d get on well with my OH!

Watching the doubles right now! Feeties needed a rest!
Me too! Bit tense 🙂
I’m guessing the Murrays need to win?
I suspect so 😦

It’s just as well that lovely photos can be taken in dull Scottish weather – because sometimes there’s an awful lot of it! 🙂
Fingers crossed Elaine! We have had a lovely day today, but I suspect it won’t last the whole week!
You never know – sometimes the weather there can surprise you!
