We had a distressful encounter at the weekend. A couple who had flown over from Romania were searching for the woman's brother, Eugen. He has been missing from his London home since Monday and they and the police are concerned for his welfare. His car had last been seen north of Pitlochry and a search of his browsing history showed he had been interested in the Garvault; hence their arrival at our door. Of course we will look out for him, but ask any Facebook friends in the area to do so too.

Norscot Joinery Ltd. made a fine job in fitting our fine new windows. Amazing views can now be seen without distortion. Returning to glazing bars after 40 years a particularly nice touch

Awaiting the Storm. I wonder how many cherries will still cling on after the 70 mph winds of gentle Floris has been through this evening
