Morning it looks like we've got rain for the rest of the day, I've been out picking raspberries between showers there can't be that many left. plenty in my freezer though

The rain didn't happen we did have 5 mins of hailstones but thats been it for the day. So its been a good day here

Evening all. After a lovely start to the day, things went downhill rapidly and we've ended up with a typical scottish day. All seasons weather in a single day .

We went out and did a grocery shop at a Tesco with parking underneath. Such a sensible thing to do when buuilding a supermarket. Nowt worse than getting home with the groceries soaked because of a walk in the rain from the shop to the car.

After there we went and bought some Root Riots. I really can't wait to see how these perform.


Feet now up and watching Mastermind.

Pal just told us it's snowing below 1500 feet, sleet forecast for us at lower levels, glad I took some pictures of the flowers earlier.

Good Morning All Gloomy start and it feels chilly. More Parkin today, it went down a storm. Gluten free this time. Have a good day

Covering of Snaw! Ah well that's the beauty of having a house in the sticks. Glad of the woodburner today.

Glad of the woodburner today.

Bet you are LOL

It's a bright and sunny 4C here with the ominous tag-line feels like 1C so the c/heating has conveniently switched itself on Stupid cat wants the door open, fat chance of that!
Guess it's an indoors day then ....

Have a good'un

Was up mega early and it was miserable outside
Fast forward four hours and the sun has appeared, pretty nippy out though
Went out for coffee, then lunch with a pal yesterday, had to google caffeine overdose when I got back.
Felt dreadful, and got indigestion as well.
Feel much better now
have a lovely weekend everyone

[Florence Fennel]

Raining here now so heating's on to dry the washing, well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. Sner Snadge already? Wow!

What parkin recipes are you using, Flo? I could do with one to try (for the sticky cake version) as I've long since lost recipes I've used in the past.

Yorkshire Parkin, BBC Good Food sc - only needs just over an hour rather than an hour and a half

The 'festive' rolling pin, I ordered a few weeks ago arrived this morning, so think I'll be making spiced biscuit dough later, or in the morning, for a trial run
I like to bag up a few biscuits for mates and neighbours, so thought these would make them special

[Florence Fennel]

I saw that Thelma and hesitated. Think I'll get it now - let us know if it's good please?

[Thelma Sanders]

Will do

[Florence Fennel]

Do you think it would work for a pie crust?
