Nice walk this afternoon. We saw sun, showers, hale and wind but me, Rosie and Lily stuck it out.
That is Cramond Island in the background.

A weekend rammed with sport kicks off tonight with Scottish Championship Football, and tomorrow is 6 Nations Super Saturday, with all six teams playing and Scotland in with a shout of being tournament winners. Sunday and it's the Chinese Grand Prix.

Need to ca' canny tonight as friends are around tomorrow to watch the rugby, and it will be a long day! So, a couple of wee ones.

Cadenhead's Ardnamurchan 5, Oloroso Cask. NC, NCF, 58.1% ABV.

Packed with red fruit: sweet cherries, strawberries and red currants, and a touch of earthy dunnage. Rich, thick, and mouth-coating, mulled wine with cinnamon, cloves, and orange peel. Jammy with a slight savouriness. Despite its youth, it has incredible complexity and depth.

A bright blue sky over the loch. In the distance, on the far shore, are mountains with mist that the sun hasn't yet burnt away. In the foreground are several still leafless trees (except for the conifers).

Sunset over Loch Laggan.

Beautiful cloudless blue sky with diminishing light, over the loch which is bounded by silhouetted mountains. The setting sun is creating a lovely warm glow, which nearly obscures one distant mountain in the centre of the photo.

Storm clouds approach Dunskey Castle. Said to be haunted by a ghostly piper and a servant girl, plus home to a brownie known as The Hairy Man, the castle's clifftop, wave-lashed location has seen turbulent times.

The shoreline at tranquil Auchmithie, some three miles north-east of Arbroath in Angus. This is the original home of the smoked haddock known as the Arbroath Smokie. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/arbroath/auchmithie/index.html

Auchmithie, some three miles north-east of Arbroath in Angus. The image shows a bay facing right out to sea. There's a track leading into the picture behind the bay and this can be seen to climb grassy cliffs that are on the far side of the bay and behind it. There are two buildings behind the bay. The scene is in patchy sunlight.

A close-up of a blue road sign on a lamppost has been knocked to a jaunty angle, pointing down nearly to pavement level; the sign depicts an icon of a bicycle peeking out behind layers of stickers and a green box showing this is quiet route number ‘6’, with text reading ‘Kings Buildings’ and 2 (assumedly, miles). In the background of the image, which is focus blurred, we see people and vehicles moving around a square with greenery and bare trees in the center.

Beautiful day again. This is Linlithgow Palace.
We visited yesterday when there was a small artisan market in the town, and I felt obliged to purchase a small pile of baked products 😊

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 People in the Highlands and Islands are set to benefit from cheaper bus travel as a £2 fare cap is introduced this month in #Scotland. The pilot will cover routes across Highland, Moray, Argyll and Bute, and Orkney, following successful launches in Shetland and the Western Isles. Single fares such as Wick to Inverness (£31) and Elgin to Inverness (£15.60) will be capped at £2. First Minister John Swinney visited Inverness Bus Station to announce the rollout, highlighting benefits for rural and low-income communities. The scheme forms part of wider measures, including scrapping peak rail fares and continuing free travel for under-22s, over-60s and disabled passengers, to ease the cost of living.
