Iona

Dr Anne and SS were blessed to be accompanied into Iona by a pod of dolphins.


There were at least a dozen dolphins leaping around the boat.

Dr Anne and SS headed on up to the Abbey.  
They enjoyed the tranquility of the place and wished for more time to explore.

Staffa

Dr Anne and SS have been on their annual trip.

On Friday they sailed to Staffa and the amazing Fingal's Cave.

The weather was bright dull.  

It was awesome.

March Garden

Is the snow going to come or should I get out and do the garden.  
The grass needs cutting.
The shrubbery needs pruning.  
The bulbs are in bloom.



Irises in the trough


Snowdrops nearly past


Crocuses in full bloom

Institute Hall

The Institute Hall Committee held a coffee morning in the Church Hall on the 1st of March in aid of their kitchen renovation.

The users thanked Moira George of Soy Kilts who donated the new curtains.



March, in like a Lamb

March has come in like a Lamb.  

The garden looks pretty colourful.  The snowdrops are quite advanced.  The crocuses are in full bloom.
