I have done this hill about 10 times now and have never seen the view from the top. Today was no different but it was nice to be out.

Got white puddings delivered for Christmas presents. They got left with a neighbour. Got home and my husband said that 2 wee toots I teach on a Friday brought them over for me. He said they were very determined they were to get to me and he had to promise to hand them over!
White pudding from Stornoway in its packaging. Blue writing on the label.

A sunrise and a sunset out of my wee school windows. Week 5 done.

Another Sunday at rugby. They were all fab as ever and the afternoons are joyful as they’re having so much fun. Youngest had some storming tries.

Got a little bit of Galloway gold today. I love being in the hills at this time of year.

Light just coming through onto the hills beyond. Rocky small hills in the distance with brown grass in front of them. Grey clouds with a hint of blue sky under them. Blue sky with high grey clouds scattered across it. A viaduct runs across the valley.

Had a beautiful walk this morning. Two close encounters, this one and a buzzard that took off just in front of me. Thursdays are nice as a day off.

Guess the story…

Another round of rugby today. I’m obviously (very) biased but girls rugby is such a thing of joy. 40 girls just so happy. And it was pouring again. Also, I’m obviously (very) biased but youngest played really well today. Storming try with about 3 handoffs.
Grey clouds over green rugby pitches. Floodlights and posts dotted about the pitch.

Bit of a dreich walk but quite atmospheric in its own way.
Grey clouds over a very still loch. One Scots Pine on the right, several on the left. Brown hills in the distance, grey sky above. Autumn trees in the foreground. Large stone in the foreground on the right, loch and hills in the background. Grey sky above. River with whitewater running over rocks. Bare trees on either side.

At this point, I don’t think either of us is very comfy but obviously I cannot move in case she is.

We made mini water cycles today. I fear November is really not the best month for this.
Two plastic ziplock bags taped to a window. The water cycle is drawn on them in black pen.
