The morning after!

PHEW! The country has spoken and it's a NO vote. I am so relieved; we are all relieved in this household. So, now, the way ahead for Scotland is redefined.

I hope the package promised by Westminster, for Scotland, is honoured in full. Change must come. I've just listened to David Cameron's speech this morning, and it would seem that, constitutionally, things have been stirred up nicely. These could be exciting times. For the record, I thought Alex Salmond's acceptance of the result speech was impressive, dignified and inclusive of all Scots, befitting of a First Minister. He must be feeling very, very tired now.

I'm feeling much happier! Hooray!

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week. The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds. Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

A simple vase on Monday

I have just one flower in my vase this week. A simple, pretty, wild narrow-leaved Michaelmas daisy. The vase is actually a black pottery cup. I wish I could remember where we bought it and who made it, but it is a great favourite of mine. I even made it the subject of a piece of artwork several years ago. Clearly shaped by hand, it has the air of a Japanese piece about it.
