A present from Tain. Tain Pottery.

Just look at this lovely bowl! A beautiful house warming present for our new house. Every time I see this on our new breakfast bar I will think of our Scottish friends.
I met up with Sallie @sarah19 & her husband Allan this lunchtime on their way through from their visit to Devon.
Postponed from last week owing to circumstances but we all enjoyed lunch out in the shade in Great Eccleston & then a visit to the building site to check out our new pad.
Sallie & Allan were one of our first visitors at our original farmhouse b&b over 25 years ago & we have kept in touch ever since in fact she is the person responsible for introducing me to 365.
A really lovely day had by all except Harry was t well enough to take part…he’s not had a good day today…too hot I think.

Three good things:
1. Old friendships.
2. Beautiful gifts to treasure for ever.
3. The scaffolding is up for chimney repairs.
It's beautiful. Hope Harry feels better soon, this heat will take it out of anyone.

Such a beautiful gift from a beautiful friend! It sounds like a lovely get together. And I know Sarah was delighted to see your new home.
Hoping Harry starts feeling better soon. He's had a tough row to hoe with Covid on top of surgery...and the heat doesn't help. Sending good thoughts his way!!
