It was lovely - hope my chainsawing/wood splitting didn't spoil your peace! 

I obviously know the whereabouts of most of the pictures but can't place the pond at all for some reason! 

Ahh so it was you making all that noise ...

The pond is down the avenue of trees (as i call it).. past the phone box there is a small steading set back from the road  on the right hand side..(the folk that live there sold the house inluve in to the current owners..) i had a good history lesson off them while on a dog walk the other month..

An absolute beautiful day here today.. a cracking day for a long walk out with the dog...

16c inside the house this morning.. treated the family by turning the thermostat up to 18c and thats where it will stay now for the next 6 months. Stove was serviced, chimney sweep did his thing earlier in the week and wood supplies have been ordered... bring winter on i say..

Gut Feel tells me it might be a winter that gets you replacing Mair with TOO MUCH 

I think we both know you can never have Too Much...

@Mair Snaw @Snowandrocks

Thanks for the welcome. I pass through Oyne on the way to the office, Inverurie etc. Mrs SIS and I love all the old granite houses lining the road there - so pretty. 

The past owner put harling over the old undressed granite façade at the front of our new abode. Was the fashion in the early 90's. It's coming off as soon as possible!

Pre-snaw pint sounds good.

Finally got internet, telly up and running this morning. Off for a stroll while it's not raining now.

In that case you drive past my front door.. glad your settling in well.. if ya need anything feel free to ask.

Welcome to the area @Scottish-Irish Skier .... beautiful area.. some lovely places to get out and about... might have to be a local netweather pre winter get together for a few beers..

[Scotland Weather discussion]

Out for a walk with the Cherry hogg this morning and this storm out to the east looked like it was heading out way.. lovely walk with some soggy muck for Thomas to play in..

[Scotland Weather discussion]

Ohhh i cant wait for my sleet... This has to be wrong..

[Scotland Weather discussion]

Been a very different week.. even had to fire up the log burner on Saturday as Mrs Mair Snaw was feeling cold...about 30 mins later she was opening the patio doors and complaining too hot... much like @Snowandrocks the dog enjoyed it...

[Scotland Weather discussion]

Our members from Fife i need some advice as tomorrow myself and my two boys are heading to Lochgelly race track for a super car driving experience and would like some details on the weather conditions. @Kirkcaldy Weather and @blitzen @Hawesy?? Any ideas 

[Scotland Weather discussion]

I can't wait for Sunday nights rain to come and for a cooler week.. i can't stand this heat.. already counting down the weeks untill autumn arrives.

[Scotland Weather discussion]

Lovely sunny warm weather the last few weeks... even managed 2 BBQ's at the weekend.. but as always im thinking of the coming winter.. and more importantly a car thats not going to slide off into a ditch at the first sight of a frost.

Im looking at an Audi A6 estate quattro on cross climates.. will this be any good in winter conditions?
