So utterly proud of all the hard work that has gone into getting the first ForYou Training Academy growing space up & running! Emotional open day yesterday & thrilled to see pupils interviewed on STV about what they get out of it. Go team #FarmerJones!

Spending my Saturday driving to the Cairngorms for the World Porridge Championships for work. Yup. That's a thing.

Smashing weekend at the Glenmorangie open days - whisky tours, chocolate and whisky tasters, cocktail masterclasses - and now for my designated-driver-doggie-bag...

My favourite kind of work day: the whole day pottering in the garden... potted up a zillion seedlings, made a new growing space, put up trellis, upcycled a chair that's been cluttering the polytunnel, got a little bit sunburned - and didn't look at a computer screen ALL DAY.

Aaaaand he's off! Finished my design for the Oor Wullie Big Bucket Trail - here's a sneak peek until they're all unveiled... away for his next adventure now! Oor Wullie's BIG Bucket Trail #OWBBT #artist

Last few days to see this guy - and all the other Oor Wullie sculptures on the Oor Wullie's BIG Bucket Trail before they go to auction! #OWBBT #inverness

So thrilled to have been part of the Oor Wullie's BIG Bucket Trail and see ma wee Oor Wullie go at auction for £5,500 - all for a wonderful cause and thank you Munro & Noble for sponsoring him #OWBBT #artist

It gives me tremendous pleasure to say that my dad (who, God help him, once had to train me) has just been elected into the Master Carvers Association Association, by a jury of his peers. Making him one of only 40 Master wood and stone carver's in the UK. #woodcarving #craft #woodwork

My sister's artwork. Goodness, but it's beautiful.
