All this talk of swifts and i get a couple of noisy magpies. Washing hung out, lawns cut, weeding and weed killer applied, dried washing brought back in

A lovely day here but I've done very little. Just unwinding after my holiday.

As I was going to remote islands, I had played it safe and withdrew plenty of Sterling cash from my bank before I left to hopefully cover all eventualities. I also seem to get charged a fee to use my card in UK ATM machines ever since Brexit.

I did end up withdrawing more money in Inverness and had been scratching my head all the time about what I had spent it on. Mystery solved, as there's £200 sitting on top of my dressing table that I somehow must have forgotten to take with me!

So, an unexpected windfall...

Every now and again I would like a Porsche outside my home, but life has not cast me in that role. Nissan Murano will do.

There's a Porsche outside my house at the moment, thankfully I don't own it.

We see a lot of them locally for obvious reasons: one acquaintance in the village is a test driver for the company.
