provide the support we all need and to make the…

Old Style Daily Saturday 19 October 2024
Morning folks. There's a beautiful moon and the stars are still out. I need to stop looking at them and shift myself. My car is ready 😀 so I'm heading down for it. I'll leave the hire car at the body shop for the company to collect. The main road at the Rest is closed so it's the diversion down Glen Croe that's open under…

O/S Daily Monday 14th October 2024
Good morning, it's a dry start here. Yesterday was ok, but chilly though. We visited a friend yesterday, she has a daughter living near DH's brother in the south west, where we are going today. She'd asked us to take some things down to her daughter, so we went to collect them from her. Then it was a quick trip to Tosco,…

O/S Daily Saturday 12th October 2024
Good morning, it seems to be a dry start this morning, cold though. I went to a nearby shopping centre yesterday, looking for some thick jumpers, well, thickish. Bought 2, plus a thinner one, but I don't look up to much in the thinner one, so I'll take it back. I need to go out today but just to our High street. Nothing…

O/S Daily Friday 11th October 2024
Good morning, it's cold here with a hard frost brr. Still, it's dry, better than the never ending rain. I had a quiet day yesterday, went out to collect a parcel from a nearby shop, and finished planting spring bulbs in containers. I'm a bit late with that this year. I haven't read back on yesterday, hope everyone is all…
