Breckie is going to be big juicy strawberries (Scottish I hasten to add),

Does it say where about or just Scottish? A few places in Angus and a couple around here too.

A few years ago we were in Skye in early June.
We were offered strawberries for breakfast. Fresh local strawberries they said. In early June? In Skye?

Hmmmm, even under a poly tunnel that doesn't sound possible.

Sorry, it only works as a link. If anyone knows how to copy and paste please feel free.

Just checked. It says Angus.
We had Scottish strawbobs last week and they were lovely.

Bonjour! Rather wet and dull this morning. I am going to say goodbye to my son this morning. He is flying to Dubai and then Taiwan tomorrow for his work and won't be back till the end of September. I shall miss him but he has to earn a living. I think it is harder for his own son who is 10 years old as they are very close. He has always worked away but , up to now, it was two weeks on and two weeks off, all in the North Sea, so not too bad. Thanks to Corona virus, he now has to work further away, at least for the time being.
No other plans for today. I was going to have a ride but the weather is not playing ball so it is not likely to happen. Maybe tomorrow?

Good morning all fellow wheezers.
Nice and sunny at the moment but rain forecast for later on.
Going up to a friend later on for a BBQ, in the rain.
Dog walking soon and probably a bit more rubbish picking over the local fields. The same group of kids are there most nights leaving their rubbish strewn about..

Well. It looks like we are in for another day of rain, with showers, then heavier rain, followed by rain and yet more rain.

I will have to potter around then. I might even have to do some houseworky stuff. but first it's time.

 

[Mo1959]

It's even saying possible showers here now too. I bet if I go out it will definitely come on!

Checked just now. Just £25 for me. Better than a kick in the teeth.

If you're anything like me, you will decide to leave it, then it turns out to be ok and you are grumpy later because you didn't go!
