I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

Brilliant story about the Queen, Gill, maybe one day she and Phillip will come down my drive for a cup of tea!

Wonderful, Gill! How funny.

My only memory of Ballater is having a tummy bug there and being stuck in the hotel for two days in the middle of a trip round Scotland just after we were married...
