Get better quick.

[Mikey RV]

Quick someone send him some flowers so he can identify them and take a photo.

The first image that Google produced gave me the shudders!!!!

Good Luck and Get Well Soon

PS What are these, seemed to be a field full of them on the coast between Rosehearty and Banff?

Initial thought was Thistles but don't think so.

Purple or Blue tansy, aka ‘Fiddleneck’ (I think!), namwaldog

(Same family as forget-me-nots!!)

The heads of the flowers curving over the stem look like the head of a violin - hence the name!!

Walking out this morning from a campsite in Normandie and we came across Le Coq Hardi. The name did make us both smile

There’s one of those in La flotte ils de Rey too. Made me laugh also

 

[KNWH]

But how long will it TAKE for the tide to go back out mum?

Sorry can't resist again. We are at Bay View again, only left last Thursday after mum's funeral.

We had booked Coniston Park Coppice, arrived but almost full and IMO not a site for us, looked a bit of a mess and too shaded.

So we popped down to Bay View.

Photo just shows tide, in distance, way up into the bay, first time I have seen like that since I was a kid.

That looks roundabout where the Cross Bay Walks started from.

About 3-4 hours walk at low tide across the sands and channels to Grange over Sands. We did it in the early eighties as a charity walk and got a chartered double deck bus back!

Cedric Robinson, the Queens Bay Guide, died quite recently...

A walk in Tay forest park Kenmore this morning.

 

[Stewart J]

Glencaple near Dumfries, well known to many funsters a real stunner of a location, we have used it for many years.

 

[Jo-jo]

Lindisfarne castle, lovely day after 2 rainy days up here

and some lovely sweet peas growing in the walled garden

Can anyone identify this bird for me? zoom in for a closer look

 

[AndyPK]

It’s a juvenile starling, isn’t it…..??

Walking the dog, Rackwick, this morning.

Love this Swift, parked up at site we are staying.
Slightly interesting thing about it, does anyone know what?

 

[Smudger55]

Photos from just outside Pennine View, Kirkby Stephen near a couple of viaducts. Could not walk too far because of Ernie.

Still at Glencaple on the bank of the Nith near Dumfries. Weather closed in this afternoon, hill in background on first (yesterdays photo) known as Criffel and swathed in folklore going back centuries now totally obscured,
