Taking a short break from gardening activities to walk the dog

Nearly a year now since we established Tain Walking Football Club. Going forward, we look forward to future footballing events and also to working closely with the other established football organisations in the area when mutually beneficial. #football #scotland North

Always something to keep you busy. Put the blade across an iron gate yesterday. Cut the blade clean in half. Awaiting a new set of blades from Germany #gardening

Selection of Cuttings taken earlier in the year: lambs lugs, leylandii, buddleia, cotoneaster, variegated London pride. Outside always from day 1. #gardening

Three enjoyable cuttings courses run so far. Another one scheduled in ten days time. Learning how to take perennial cuttings in preparation for next Spring and Summer.

Time to think about booking your cuttings courses for next year! #gardening #cuttings #tain #easterross

Sometimes I wait for the bus. And sometimes I just wait.

7 rescue chickens collected from somewhere between Perth and Stirling today (sat nav is a wonderful thing). Their life is about to get better. And for me, it is the start of the lunchtime egg sandwich season!

Plants for sale, new plant tables in progress at the top of the drive, garden courses for cuttings being booked as we slowly approach Spring, growth in the polytunnel, shrubs budding… pay us a visit. We are emerging from the dormant season.

Our members have supported a ‘one-off’ donation of £120 to pay for Highland United Football Club’s first 2 league appearances in Dundee and to help kick start a Highland football force to be reckoned with. We watch their progress with great interest. #walkingfootball North

The 50p table. And the selection is growing.

The ever expanding 50p table. They are growing fast, they are going fast -with more added daily to keep up with demand. Now is the time. It’s all go, time to grow. 😀 #tain #garden
