errrr, news.

Today is Tony Blair's last day as UK Prime Minister. Yay!! He's also quitting his job as an MP and is off to save the Middle East (from the Arabs). You can read more about it here, and here, and probably in his new book which will probably have a foreword by an American president.

here is another take on the subject.....

Good news

Ulrika has phoned and she's safe and back home in Sweden. I'm so happy that i'm going to post some pictures of the pretty flowers that we saw on our ill fated trip.






You may have noticed from the pictures but not all the flowers are so pretty; some are damaged, some are dead and decaying. I thought this was as beautiful as anything else i saw. When we looked closely at the plants, the death of the flowers was followed by new growth. Ahhh, nature. Ye cannae whack it.

Where's Ulrika?

Ulrika and i went for a trip to the highlands and visited a garden called Crarae. It was a lovely place but also very big and full of large plants. I lost Ulrika. Can you find her for me?

it was always going to happen...
