We went back to Aberfeldy for a few lazy days. The weather was lovely, sun was shining, it was warm. We walked over to Homer’s, a shop with all sorts of nice things for the home. We bought a few things for the kitchen wall and a dustpan+brush set. Bill calls it my dustpan. Early the following morning we walked to a bakery for a loaf of sourdough. They had won the gold award in Best in Scotland for their white sourdough making them the Scottish Bakery of the year 2022/2023. Well, all we can say is not all sourdough bakeries participated. The sourdough we bought in Mallaig comes from a completely different planet. The sourdough planet.

This time we drove south, to Aberfeldy, but stopped first at Blair Castle. We joined Scotland’s National Trust which gives us free access to castles and gardens and places. Lentran House, where we live, is a member of Historic Houses and that membership also gives us free access to castles and gardens and places. Blair Castle is a Historic House place. Blair Castle is some 750 years old and it has been the home of the same family through all these years. 30 rooms of the castle are open for public. Quite impressive, I must say. Fancy. In the walled garden everything was still asleep which was a pity. It’s still early in the growing season.
