Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Friday. Today is our last day up in Scotland, house hunting. A day of rest, hopefully and it is possible we will be making an offer, once we get a Scottish solicitor. Unless MrsD changed her mind or over thought things in the night. She's currently snoring like a chainsaw, or that could be Wesley! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Have a great Friday. Stay safe, do the fun thing and have a laugh. Take care.

Today's photo is the walk to the Covesea (Cowsea) lighthouse and the gorse.

Good morning MrD.

Hope you find the ideal house for you both
& Wesley. It's never an easy choice.

Nice picture, hope you get a few more before you have to go back to Leeds.

I'm sure it's Wesley snoring ๐Ÿ˜

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Thursday. Just when you thought it was all over, MrsD want to go house hunting again today! Two new builds to view this morning.

We were at friends in Keith last night and immediately on arrival Wesley disgraced himself by attacking their whippet, Wally. No reason for it, but Wally was not happy at all. Wesley was tied up outside for the evening. Silly bugger!

Today's photo is called "A girl, her dog, his ball, a beach". Welcome to Silver Sands beach.

Good morning to you MrD.

You almost escaped looking at more houses, never mind, it's only another two. ๐Ÿ˜

A lovely beach scene and so quiet. Down here, there would probably already be a few dozen people on the beach LOL

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! ๐Ÿ˜ We shall see.

Whatever you are up to today, have a great day. Have fun, take care. Laughter is not optional! ๐Ÿ˜€

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. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

Good morning MrD and "Hooray!!" to just 2 more houses to visit. Hope you both find somewhere you are happy with.

That's a great picture, it would be nice to have views of that every day.

Hope the weather is kind to you today.

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 6ยฐC 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.

Good morning to you MrD

You had sunshine yesterday ๐Ÿ˜ฑ
We had light rain most of the day, pup got quite wet once I managed to get him walking (he hates getting wet). It is now sunny with some blue sky but it's supposed to be mostly cloudy today and the rest of the week.

You are such a fun guy with your mouldy pictures ๐Ÿ˜

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 fellow Mastos and hello to Friday, or in MrsD's case, Thursday as she's running a day behind for some reason! ๐Ÿ˜ 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@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!! ๐Ÿ˜‰

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

Good morning MrD.

I love the amoosing picture. I like Highland cattle, they always look they've just rolled out of bed.

Sorry to hear you have had rain, it's been dry and sunny here, except last night when it wasn't sunny ๐Ÿ˜At least you had a lie-in, it took us years to train the children to have one, a couple of months to train the puppy LOL

Have a good day yourself!

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

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.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to the weekend. And it's not even raining! (Yet!)

MrsD is not walking today, apart from with me and Wesley.

Have a great weekend, starting today

I took this photo yesterday while walking Wesley. It looks like it might be time to "cast a cloot" as the May is indeed "oot"!

Good morning MrD.

It is sunny here. Not sure what we are doing today. Just been woken by our grandson who stated over last night.

Another nice picture to start the day.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Friday. MrsD will be finishing her walk from Bradford cathedral to Ripon cathedral today, only 12 miles! Me? I'm on doggy duties.

Have a great day everyone and don't forget to laugh. It's good for you. Take care.

Today's photo is from yesterday and I call it "pink snow". One cherry tree has covered three houses and lawns with blossom petals.

Morning MrD

MrsD certainly does get about!

I imagine Wesley is saving all his energy for when she comes through the door ๐Ÿ™‚.

Have a Happy Star Wars weekend!

We have a birthday in the household, so will be going out for dinner.

By the way, the picture is very colourful, love the blossom.

Steampunk_Prof,
@Steampunk_Prof@mastodon.social avatar

I like a good walk when I can but don't get the chance much.

I used to like Star Wars (not fanatically), till we had a child who was obsessed. Now I'm not quite as interested.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to Thursday and what the Daily Mail (no, I don't read it!) says will be a stormy day. Checks weather app, sunny with light showers - oooh, stormy! ๐Ÿ˜‰

I am ashamed to admit that MrsD reads the Daily Fail online, but at least she doesn't take it as gospel! Phew.

Whatever you read, or otherwise, have a belter of a day. Have fun and laughs and stay safe. Cheers

Today's random photo is from yesterday. I took it on the Leeds Liverpool Canal near Kirkstall Abbey.

Good morning to you MrD.

We had a brief thunderstorm last night plus a lot of heavy rain. At least it's not raining now ๐Ÿ™‚

I don't read any newspapers these days, too unreliable.

Have a good day!

We adopted a super sweet 8 month old pup from a shelter two weeks ago and were convinced he was a Rottie-Shepherd mix. Just got the DNA results back, and, through his genes are primarily "mutt," the rest of the results have us going ๐Ÿ˜ณ

DNA results for our dog Riley that reveal his genetic percentages as: 100% Riley 33.4% Supermutt 28.9% Australian Cattle Dog 12.9% Border Collie 11% Labrador Retriever 5.4% American Pit Bull Terrier 4.3% McNab 4.1% German Shepherd Dog

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Monday. It's sunny and dry! Until lunchtime anyway, so get your washing out and dried before then!

Have a great day everyone, don't forget to enjoy a bad pun and some dad jokes, you'll thank me later for the groans! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Today's random photo is Wild Garlic. This grows in abundance around here and my garden is full of it just now. The flowers smell of garlic too, and you can eat all of the plant. Yum.

Steampunk_Prof,
@Steampunk_Prof@mastodon.social avatar

@NormanDunbar
Good afternoon to you too MrD. Sorry this is a bit late in the day.

Weather has been okay down here, just a bit 'Meh' really.

I love the smell of wild garlic, it reminds of my childhood when I would stay on an Uncle & Aunts farm, their woods were full of it. It's now my cousin's farm as they both sadly died of COVID. I've not been up there for years.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Saturday. I think it's possibly going to be a dry day---shock horror! MrsD will be off soon, she's looking after a pair of cats for someone while they are away for a week. I'll be walking Wesley while she's out, if he's awake that is.

If you are up to anything today, make sure you enjoy it and have fun. Stay safe.

The ALT text has the details, but today's photo, from yesterday in Otley at the nature reserve, is entitled "Male Bullfinch at full zoom"!

Good evening to you MrD.

We have had a fun day.
Out for breakfast.
Took the pup for a run in the country.
Built a den in the house
Went out for a meal
I exhausted the pup playing tug
Watched a bit of Star Trek

Did washing and drying when I could.

And still it rains LOL

Have a good night and enjoy tomorrow.
