Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Wednesday. Only two more houses to view today and that's us done. We might be making an offer on one we have already seen though, unless MrsD thinks herself out of it! 😐 We shall see.

Whatever you are up to today, have a great day. Have fun, take care. Laughter is not optional! 😀

We took Wesley for a walk towards Portgordon last night and say a few of the seal colony which lives there. there was around 30 last year but winter storms destroyed the rookery. 😟

Having enough fun trying to get the pup moving when I go out, possibly an adolescent thing 🙂

@Steampunk_Prof Wesley is reluctant to go out if mum isn't going too! Velcro!!

My old Sunday school teacher used to say "Sex is bad for one". I used to reply " But it's lots of fun for two"!

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Tuesday. Another warm but cloudy day forecast for today. Yesterday's was the same and it turned out to be blue skies, sunny and 6°C hotter than forecast!

Have an absolute belter of a day folks, enjoy what you do, have fun and stay safe. Bad puns and dad jokes are a bonus!

Today's random photo is from last week in the Strathclyde Country Park on the M74 motorway, near Motherwell. I called it "Chicken of the Woods? Maybe". See ALT for more.

Re alt text. Remember all fungi are edible. Some are just edible only once.

@MennoWolff I have a feeling you told me this before! But you are, if course, correct!

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Monday. More house hunting today to look forward to, even Wesley is fed up of it all. Decisions, decisions!

Have a great Monday everyone and don't forget to have fun, puns and dad jokes. Stay safe.

Today's photo is from Friday when we took Wesley to the beach at Cullen in Banffshire. His face is covered in sand as he likes to dig! Inside my car is like a beach now! That's his mum, MrsD there too. She doesn't dig! 😉

Ever tried to bump start a boat?

@NormanDunbar I've seen someone jump start an aeroplane. So we wandered to the other end of the airstrip and booked our joyride with a different operator.

@TimWardCam Sounds sensible! Wasn't Buddy Holly Airlines, was it? 😉

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Sunday. Did you see any aurora last night? I stayed up late and didn't see any thanks to the clouds. 😟 Oh well, more house hunting today, wish us luck.

Have a perfect Sunday everyone, stay safe, have fun and enjoy a good laugh. Bad puns and dad jokes are, of course, mandatory. 😉

Today's random photo is from earlier this week at Stirling. This is a medieval bridge where Mel Gibson defeated the English army! (See ALT text for real details.)

I had a girlfriend with one tooth. I called her Juanita. It was right in the middle of her mouth, I also called her central eater!

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Saturday. It's a lovely day here in Buckpool, Morayshire. Too hot already for this Ginger Jock!

I'm sat with a coffee on the beach, watching the dolphins swim past! (Well, I was when I typed this but forgot to send it!)

Have a belter of a day, stay out of the sun if you are as pale as me! Have fun. Stay safe.

Today's random photo is another one of those big bracket fungus!

Good morning to you MrD.

Hope the house hunting is going well.

Did you go aurora spotting last night? This was one of mine from last night.

NormanDunbar,
@NormanDunbar@mastodon.scot avatar

@Steampunk_Prof Strangely, no, we missed the aurora. However, I was awake at 02:00 and there was a noise, not the sea, not the wind and not the rain, so it could have been the aurora. People say it makes a whispering noise.

We are staying up late tonight........😉

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Friday, or in MrsD's case, Thursday as she's running a day behind for some reason! 😐 We're on more house hunting duties today, which should be "fun", but at least the weather is nice up here.

Have a great day everyone, have fun, stay safe. Cheers.

Today's random photo is a close shot of a newly hatched Beech hedge. The young leaves are an intense green and so far, no bugs have eaten them yet!

Good morning to you, MrsD and Wesley

Have "fun" house hunting. If we had the money we'd move too.

It's going to horrible and sunny here today, much prefer the fog.

NormanDunbar,
@NormanDunbar@mastodon.scot avatar

@Steampunk_Prof Thanks.

19°C today. 23 tomorrow. Far too hot for Scotland. It was nice and foggy last night though. Which was better.

Cheers.

@NormanDunbar@mastodon.scot avatar

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Thursday. Hope you slept well. I was kept awake by the rain last night, which is annoying. However MrsD got up early and has taken Wesley out for wander, so I got a lie in.

Have a belter of a day, have fun, stay safe and never laugh at other people's misfortunes. Unless they are Tories!! 😉

Today's random photo is especially for @DoubleTreble and the @weirdfolks. it's a Highland Coo, but not as you know it!

Good morning Norman, Mrs D and Wesley,
I love the Coo! Pretty cool!
Hope you're having a lovely morning 🥰🥰

Don't envy the house hunting, it's hard to find a house you both like.

I imagine Elgin is a marbleous place 😁

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Wednesday. Tne weather is fine here today, wherever I am. Another driving day today, you'll be glad to hear, very few bad puns and dad jokes!

Have a great day without me, take care and have lots of fun.

Today's random photo is from Buckden in Upper Wharfedale and is titled "Dandelions need living too"!

Delphi,
@Delphi@mastodon.scot avatar

@NormanDunbar I've got a thing about photos with flowers & rocks (even if it is concrete & dandelions). Weather is fine & dull here. I like dull maybe because I grew up in Blackpool & sunshine meant hoards of tourists everywhere. I took the photo in Iceland.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to a damp Tuesday. Well, it has to be damp after yesterday's typical bank holiday Monday weather, rain all morning and afternoon; and thunderstorms all evening.

Today will be a quiet day as I'm driving. Whatever you are doing, have fun, have a great day and stay safe.

Today's random photo is a recent one and is a close up of the eye of a whale. See ALT text for full details.

"If a whale falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

@amiserabilist However "improbable" that might be! 😉

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Monday. MrsD is walking again today and she's taking Wesley. She's also taking me!!! Hmmm. Hopefully not the 10 and 12 miles that she did last week! My arthritis won't stand for that. Also, thunderstorms predicted for later. Oh hum.

Have a great day, even if it is Monday. Have some fun and lots of laughs. Stay safe.

Today's photo is one I took yesterday evening. Is a few of the flowers on MrsD's blueberry plant. Looks like we'll get a crop again this year.

NormanDunbar,
@NormanDunbar@mastodon.scot avatar

@davebainbridge I know about the Balsam problem, we have an awful lot here in Yorkshire, as you say invasive and also, without predators. The good thing in its favour is, honey bees love its nectar and pollen. It makes the most beautiful honey.

The Balsam flower is more open than these blueberries. It's a bit like an orchid I think. These are in a pot in our garden and belong to MrsD. 🙂

NormanDunbar,
@NormanDunbar@mastodon.scot avatar

@davebainbridge This one is the Balsam.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to another Sunday. A day of rest? We shall see! No rain predicted today, which means my hay fever will be kicking off again. Ah well, I still like flowers and trees even if they hate me!

Have a cracking Sunday and have fun. Stay safe people. You know it makes sense.

Today's random photo is from April 2021 and shows a pair of otters on a riverbank near Doncaster. Oh yes, the river flows through Yorkshire Wildlife Park! 😉

One of my lizards was a bit highly strung, all the time. I took her to the vet who examined her and prescribed animal valium. Three tablets to be taken. It worked! She's a calmer, calmer, calmer chameleon now.
