Another weekend over!

Headed up to Lossiemouth this weekend to visit Claire, Dave, Faith and their newest arrival Thayne. He is the cutest wee bundle! I decided to bake some cupcakes from the Primrose Bakery cookbook to take with me. I think they went down well!

It may be Winter outside but in my kitchen its definitely Spring!!

There's a new boss in town.......introducing Thayne Campell!


And don't mess with his big sister Faith!



Some landscape shots taken from the car, bearing in mind they were shot at 60mph I think they've turned out ok!?!


Slochie sunset at the Salmon Bothy - one thing I do miss about Buckie

The Office...

Hoping to get a start on the office soon and this is the sort of 
style I'm loving.... 


You'll see from my mood board its a sort of London retro look.....well that's what I'm calling it anyway! It all started when I first saw the framed bus blinds from Not on the High Street , I absolutely love them!! They can be quite pricey  to buy (£145+) so I had a look on eBay, after losing out on a few auctions I finally won a reproduction roll which I plan to frame myself. Hopefully, if they look good enough, I might manage to re-sell a few at a profit.


So that got me thinking about other vintage London treasure I could possibly use in this room, I searched on eBay for old photos & bus memorabilia and found these....



An old enamel bus stop plate!


Original photographs of a very young AC/DC concert in the Big Smoke. Only wish I'd been there!
