Prettiness

Last Sunday night I visited the Royal Botanic Garden in Edinburgh, to see the Chinese Spring Lantern Festival event. It was very pretty :-)

The main exhibit was in the glass houses. Some of the garden outside was lit up too.

Onto to the glass houses, pretty pictures under the cut! )

Woo hoo!



'Haste ye out of my house, Tony! I'm PM now!'


Gordon Brown just seems an altogether more genuine man than Tony Blair. Here's hoping he'll deliver!

Sunday Night

Shock news of the week - I recorded last week's and this week's Doctor Who, and haven't watched either episode yet! Which is why I may not have commented to half my LJ flist, for fear of being spoiled!

Saturday finally brought the weekend blue skies I had been craving for a Springtime trawl around the neighbourhood with my camera...


I love fresh new foliage!


Mmmmm, cherry blossoms against blue skies!





This clever apple tree had cherry grafted onto it! So pretty!

I had falsely been under the belief that all Green & Black's chocolate was fairtrade and have only been buying it for the past couple of years, but in fact it is only the Maya Gold variety that is, which I never buy :/ Co-op chocolate only from now on, it is!

Unseasonal Christmas Post

I meant to post about this at Christmas, because it's not on the telly now - the Irn Bru Christmas advert this year :) I don't know if Irn Bru advertise all over Britain on the telly, or just Scotland, and I don't know if The Snowman is well known outside the UK, but this ad featuring famous sites all over Scotland was just fantastic :)

Wednesday Night

Hello! Currently melting in Scotland, a novel but not entirely unpleasant experience! I love electric fans, mmmmmmm! :)
I haven't been online all week. The heat has made me so lethargic that when I'm not at work or watering the garden at dusk, I'm just drooping around the place, all useless! Add the fact that my reconditioned PC is absolutely huge and acts as a useful extra radiator in the winter, I haven't felt particularly inclined to switch it on!
Have just read my flist up to date now, and seems as though everyone else has had a far more eventful time, and I am sorry to be commenting so many days after events have happened :/
My digi camera is full of photos, which must be cropped and posted on LJ! But not today, unfortunately, as it is now 3am and too late to be able to manage anything sensibly.
Normal LJ service will resume once this heatwave finally (if ever) breaks. In the meantime...
*pours glasses of iced water for everybody*
