OK - that's me done - after tomorrow's morning service we're off on our hols to Scotland (just a wee step over the border into Dumfries and Galloway)

 

I hope you all have a great day at the Omlet get-together - it sounds like great fun - and (rest assured) I've fixed up some good weather for you all..

 

I have dropped Star and Mrs Miggins off at Mels Eglu Retreats..

Great setup - lovely people - (including three wee small boys to collect the eggs and crawl into the eglu to fetch dropped clips) - and complete peace of mind that they are being well looked after while I spread my sporran in the heather..... (as it were...)

 

Mrs Miggins said (quietly) - can we stay longer???

 

anyway - did I mention Mel's Eglu Retreats

 

http://egluretreats.blogspot.com/ (you even get a free cup of coffee and a chocolate biscuit!)

 

 

behave yourselves while I'm away!

Hi Phil,

I was only looking at Mels' site yesterday

 

Have a great time in Scotland.

If you haven't been before,its wonderful & the Scotch Whiskey is great!

 

We are off tomorrow too - to sunny Centerparcs in Longleat where I will not only celebrate being an Eglu owner for a whole year (on & off) but also my 40th birthday

 

Have a good one - I know I will

[Mrs Frugal]

Say hello to Scotland for me Phil. I'm desperate to get back there for another holiday. Have a great time.

[ubereglu]

Have fun Phil.

[Lesley]

We always behave Phil!

[Martin B]

Have a nice time!

[Sheilaz]

That's good to hear, Phil. Hope you have a good holiday. Do report back with a recommendation if the hens tell you that they enjoyed their holiday with Mel Cotton. Sounds very welcoming.

[PurpleHen]

Have fun Phil

We're off to Scotland for the first time in September - can't wait......

[Lesley-Jean]

We often go to Dumfries and Galloway Phil, John's second Mum and Dad (God parents) live in Castle Douglas. Fantastic Choccy shop there

 

Have a great time

[Cate in NZ]

Have a great holiday Phil, and a great holiday with Mel for Mrs Miggins and Star- it sounds like Mel's got a good set-up there, anyone offering chocolate biscuits as an extra has to be providing a great service

Scotland's beautiful at this time of year, I love it, but I hope you've packed lots of insect repellant- they've got some very persistant midges up there

[Louise]

Yep it is gorgeous up here at the moment

 

Phil you should have told me you were coming up I could have introduced you to my cats

[Lesley-Jean]

 

Never mind Louise. He can have this one

Any ideas why I can't see that LJ? Is it because i'm not a cat lover???

[Louise]

I can't see it either

[Lesley-Jean]

I can see it. It's just a gif of a lovely pussy cat in a basket

[Cate in NZ]

Oh, it sounds lovely L-J, but I'm sorry, I can't see it either

I'm sure Phil will appreciate the thought though...... without needing to see it

[Lesley-Jean]

OK I've changed it to a different one Does that one work

[AnnieP]

oh yes! Perfectly!

[Lesley-Jean]

That's a better one for Phil anyway

[Cate in NZ]

I can see it now too L-J, very nice

[Lesley-Jean]

Let us all know how the chooks like it at Mel's Phil. I often pass that way on holiday

[ali-s]

Yep it is gorgeous up here at the moment

And here as well

 

Driving home yesterday through the Cairngorms the tops of the mountains were shrouded in a purple mist and the Heather is in bloom

[Louise]

Absolutely minging today though

[Guest]

 

Did I fall asleep and wake up in November?!

 

That's what it looks like, with this mingy, misty rain we're being treated to today!

I went to Costco at 12.30 in August and stepped out 30 minutes later into January
