August 21st
I feel a bit like a lost property shop this month, for I have found spectacles in a dark grey case in the front porch (were you doing a jigsaw?), a waterproof jacket (in the “old furniture” bedroom wardrobe) – its label says US Basic ***, M size. Lastly I have acquired a very pretty pair of ear rings in the same bedroom the other day – I am certain they belong to the young girl from Brescia, Italy – no more address than that…..
Please get in touch and I’ll post with pleasure!
Quentin and Berengere from Paris arrived on the 18th, with a lovely mug, little chocolates and an Eiffel Tower keyring – how could they guess that I love my collection of keyrings? I have my morning coffee in their mug now. Thank you both!
After various permutations of family being here over six weeks, Sam left on Thursday, having returned from a six day cruise to the north, with his regatta skipper, who has a small yacht. The good weather had kept up and the winds were very favourable, so the cruise was a great adventure.
The weather has become much more unsettled and cool but I am still busy with visitors and have a good few bookings till around the end of September. After that I’ll think about a big tidy up and a few days in Edinburgh, perhaps.
The garden has been easy this year as a friend’s daughter has grown veges in that part of the garden, while Colin and Moira did a great job on the front lawn and wild trellis, which are looking much better. Sam and I kept the front and side hedges in trim and a friend mowed when necessary. It is quite a big area and I am glad of any help, for the moment anyway!
I have decided to have self catering weeks available, at Heron’s Flight, at Christmas and New Year. If you would like to come then, please get in touch directly to annheronsflight@btinternet.com A ll the facilities and accommodation are on www.heronsflight.org and on the Plockton Web. It would be fun to have you here during the festive spell!
In the meantime, please pop in if you are in this part of the country….
Ann
