Lovely walk round Lochore Meadows with my youngest today.

Always an unexpected delight when your normally room dwelling teenager chooses to venture outside with you.

Look what I found in my plant pot.

Has Jackson planted himself in the hope he'll grow into a tiger?

Sun is shining in Fife and the Allium in the garden are almost in full bloom.

Beinn Chabhair - do it while it's dry!

I've been putting of this notorious bogfest for quite some time but after an unusual run of dry, sunny weather I went for it and did not regret.

Yes there were still a couple of cases of bog feet but nothing like the horror stories I'd heard.

"Lunchtime" is an outdated social construct.

Hill rule #1 - lunchtime = whenever you summit, so today it's 10:50.

Not the normal pie today but a chicken mayo roll!

What other hill rules apply?

So excited to have our team on bluesky.

YPI is all about encouraging young people to have blue sky thinking so what could be more appropriate.

As someone who often feels they can be "too much", today's yoga shavasana meditation rang very true.

I'll never be everyone's cup of tea so for today at least I will try and live in a way that is true to my heart and hope that to at least one person that is a gift.

Out and about in Crieff today and a quick chance to stop and admire the "Leafy Coos".

Flora, Burrell and little Beagan made by local blacksmith blacksmith Kev Paxton.

They certainly kept me amooosed!

Stroll along Limekilns sea front today, to get out in nature.

A couple of feathered friends we met along the way.

Some days you hike for the views, some days you just hike.

The unrelenting Ben More and Stob Binnein put these old legs to the test but a great day out.

Joined by a friend for a quick lunch stop at Gartmore Dam today.

Didn't get too close as I still have PTSD from when one bit/mouthed me for getting a bit too close as a child 😬

Hill planning for the weekend in progress, where is everyone going?

My current wish list, any must do's or avoid at all costs?

On Earth Day I'd like to take a moment to stop and admire the beautiful country I am blessed to live in.

Getting out on the hills of Scotland is what keeps my brain and body healthy, the least I can do is try and protect the world that gives me so much.

Here's a crazy idea: I've decided to give away 300 (300!) signed books on Bluesky today. Who knows if this will work but let's see, shall we? Be in the first 300 to reply to this & you can have one.(Limiting the offer to UK but happy to send overseas if people cover the postage.)
More info below...

Windswept walk around Cramond island today while the tides were in our favour.

Our brief spell of Scottish sunshine has definitely left us this week, hoping that's not it for the year

What a difference a week makes, sun splitting the sky last Sunday on Stob na Bròige one of the two Munros summited on Buachaille Etive Mòr in Glencoe.

No hills this weekend for this ice averse climber thanks to the Scottish weather.

What to do instead?
