To mafegan: View line
Hi, Marlene,

To maloutim: daffodils
Thankyou, Marie Louise,
Yes, the clumps of small daffodils are just coming into flower now, but the storms of the last 2 days have made them look a bit sad.

To batalay: time
Hallo, Bulent,
Sorry I have taken so long to find the time of day - 09.33. It seems a long time ago! The mornings are much lighter now.

You are right, Bulent, it is bitterly cold here these days - much more so than usual, with lwer temps than ever recorded in some Highland glens last night. It is forecast to last for another week or...

To batalay: arithmetic!
Dear Bulent,
I hesitate to complain about your arithmetic, but it was two years and one month ago! And, what a fusspot I am, Dunbar is in the south of Scotland! Anyway, I think skylights have long...

You should have a good chance of a sunny day next time, Bev - it's not called 'sunny Dunny' for nothing!

Good evening, Marie Louise!
Glad you like this view of my back 'garden'. The 'bar' was made by piling stones across the original way to the sea, the Broadhaven.
