I love the fabrics I used in the one.... At a small learning craft center. Has knitting, quilting, stained glass,drawing, art, plus other crafts. I belong to the knitting group. We have this group of ladies who belong to the as they call it textile group, that think just because I've had no lessons in quilt making, that I don't know how to do it. So I am being very shallow and taking this on Thursday to prove other wise.

What a dog does when it's cold. Pretty smart dog I think.

Most of these I have found in the paper.

Road rage Kenyan style.

On the way to the ferry which will take us over to Iona we came across this house for sale..You can just see the white house in the first photo.
Photo number two is the view it has down to the sea. Tempting would love to wake up to this view everyday but after spending some time on Mull don't think I could hack it, too isolated with only a small co-op or Spar to do your shopping. They are like a 7-11 in the USA. Want anything more have to get on a ferry to Oban.





This is Iona.







This photo was taken from Iona looking back over to Mull.

Looks like an old man washing his face. The way he wrings it out amazing

A Manhattan-sized chunk of ice is drifting towards the coast of Canada - providing a stunning sight for tourists, but posing a potentially serious threat to shipping.

The 20-square-mile chunk of ice broke off a glacier in Greenland nearly a year ago and is headed towards the Newfoundland coast.

It was formed when a 97-square-mile chunk of ice broke off the Petermann Glacier on August 5, 2010, possibly due to warming of the Atlantic Ocean.

The ice island - at roughly 6.2 miles long and 3.1 miles wide the largest single chunk remaining from the massive parent chunk - has been winding its way through Arctic waters ever since.

In the past few days, it has been moving south at a rate of 5 to 6 miles per hour.

Thank you so much for my birthday present alyburns the new look to my lj is wonderful.
I am such a dunce when it comes to anything like this.

THANK YOU ♥

This was a surprise by email this morning about Peter Wingfield. He was the bad guy in Sentinel episode 'Foreign Exchange' I loved him as Methos in the Highlander series.





Peter sent a message to the fan club to let everyone know that he is retiring from acting. He has been accepted at the University of Vermont medical school and is going back to school to become a doctor. He plans to still be blogging about this new chapter in his life and he still hopes to meet with his fans and friends at conventions. He thanks everyone for their support and love over the past 15 years.

He almost completed his studies in the UK to be a doctor before he decided he wanted to act. After 20+ years of acting, he is ready to go back and become a doctor and we know he will excel at it.

Was having a pretty good night till I had to go and fill the car with petrol. Who would of thought one day it would cost you £64.00 or $102.82 to fill a Mini. Good job I didn't fill up last week it would of cost so much more.

Hubby and I were talking as we were filling up the car. When we moved into the house were in now, it cost us £250 to fill our oil tank for the winter. This was back in 1997 not that far back really. Now it costs us £2000 to fill it up.

Both are something we cannot do without, so you just have to pay...
