This time the daffodils in George Square Gardens. I took this in a sunny spell punctuated with spring rain. It's not looking very well framed or neat (which could be due to the rather strong wintery breeze we are currently enduring?!)

Well, it is here one minute, gone the next...Nevertheless I managed to snap these on the Meadows on a sunny, spring-like day...and on a cold, wet, miserable day like today, its nice to look at them.

Pottery StonesThese photos were taken on a visit to Highland Stoneware, Lochinver. All around there are examples of the work, dotted around the landscape. The landscape of the Scottish Highlands seems to be a major influence on the pottery designs as well.SheepAmongst the rocks leading up to the pottery there are sheep, fish, flowers, landscapes and much more.SeascapesLandscapesLoch Assynt

Some cake survived to be photographed. Next time I'll remember to take the photo first! This is Dark Chocolate, Coffee, Walnut and Almond cake - one day I'll post the recipe on cookalicious.

I decided should add a picture of me somewhere, well here you are...This is me in Spain, going to get extra paella from the cook - in a lovely paella place next to the beach at Nerja, Andalucia.And now for some close ups of the paella as they are much more interesting than more pictures of me...Serving up some freshly cooked paella.The plate of paella.The cook, stiring up another bubbling paella
