Lover of Scottish scenery. Also my feline friend Lizzie. Divide my time between Skye and Glasgow equally. Now a grandma to Harry. I like being up mountains. Climbing or other sports. uaireannan faodaidh beagan eòlais a bhith troimh-chèile

Cannot get over how corrupt and incompetent the USA govt. is under Trump. If there is a god let them please lose the Senate and House in November and then hold those fuckers to account.

September 2023 My son on #polinbeach in the NW of Scotland. Eventually joined him. Not an easy beach to reach hence its beauty far from the madding crowd.

Cannot be bothered with all the nonsense that you need to do as a woman before you go on a holiday to somewhere warmish. But, I am doing it all in case one inch of my body is judged.

#BryceCanyonNationalPark October 2018 Fog so thick you couldn’t see anything at the top. However caught this black crow looking out on the greyness probably seeing things I couldn’t. Further down the views were amazing when the fog lifted. Actually one of my favourite photos from this road trip

Did very little today except booking a whole family ski trip (including baby) to Sestriere next March. So much negotiating to arrive at a family agreement. Anyway we have been here before, just not as a whole family group. #Italy

30th September 2018 doing a trail in #CapitolReefPark to see an arch or something. I can’t remember. However I do remember that it was hot. Anyway one of the pictures.
A stone arch.
Asked Google.

The image displays the majestic Hickman Natural Bridge, a spectacular 125-foot-tall and 133-foot-wide sandstone formation. It stands as one of the most celebrated and popular geological landmarks within Capitol Reef National Park in Utah

Catching up on the news …. so the five ‘terrorists’ from London were actually guys nicking red diesel from farmers. But, why, was Trump watching them? Why did Rubio say they were actual terrorists? Why did Farage think they were boat ‘immigrants’. Because they are racists!

All of this weekend was looking after a chonky five month old human. Totally delightful, but too much responsibility for their Grandma living her best life at 56. Need another 10 years to be an actual “grandma”

In Glasgow city outskirts when there is no traffic in the middle of the night you hear urban foxes. This is when my cat, Lizzie, snuggles the most. Those baby foxes are struggling to survive.

Realising that my cat is taking up half the bed and I really need to sleep. Don’t want to disturb her but my legs need to stretch out a little. Lizzie, I need to sleep! You have at least five different sleeping places around here. I have one. *still love her* Not as much as chonky Harry though.

Don’t drive diesel. Should replace my SUV. Have electric on Skye at my home. A bit more difficult in Glasgow. Maybe a hybrid? Really didn’t want to replace the petrol car for another year or two. However Trump has fecked all petrol and diesel cars with his stoopid war

Had a very busy two days in Glasgow. Looking after grandson, watching my cat torment some poor mouse on the back garden grass, never ending washing, shopping, cleaning. Just take me back to Skye where I can play pool and get drunk.

Farage meltdown about the 5 British guys that were nicking diesel being let out on bail. Not terrorists. Wondering why Trump had been ‘watching them’. And the farmer lady didn’t have the full facts.

So, anyway back in Glasgow and Lizzie has deserted me and has decided to sleep with youngest son. Not that bothered because he will be the one getting up at 7am when she demands to get outside. #cat #psychology #catswithattitude #tuxedo

Didn’t even take one single photo travelling south today on the A82 because there was literally hundreds of cars heading north. I am like where are these people going to? Also it’s going to be rain! Normally it’s an empty road when I travel late in the day.

Boden comes up on my FB feed and I see this gorgeous midi tartan kilt. It is £189! It’s not even authentic, not wool from Scotland. Some fake tartan. Still beautiful and I do covet.

Said goodbye to my house today. Lizzie and I safely back in Glasgow. The number of cars heading up the A82 was surprising. Then I remembered it was the Glasgow September weekend. Won’t be back for a few weeks, by then the roads will be so much quieter #Skye #A82

I am just going to shut up now. Like my youngest often is I am one of the last in the bar. I can actually still type. Morag is walking with me home…. Glad to say that after my pool exploits I am still in credit with the bar bill. Let’s see what happens the next time I am here without tourists!

#mycat WTAF I have one of those spycams looking out to the garden and just saw my cat in a blurry racing past back and forward while I am at the pub. Actually might go home now. Might lose the £10 bet with the Germans, except the Germans are behind the Italians at pool. It’s all OK

Thing about the pool league on Thursdays is that you get tourists thinking they ‘can’ beat you. So you get a wee bet going. That’s how I get very drunk on a Thursday.
