Some prize entries from the Sanday Industrial Show 2013

Suzie and Nell went to Mainland today. Nell, at 6 years old, saw her first trees and had her first ever walk in a wood. It was a scorcher, so they were glad to cool down in the loch. As for me, I REALLY wanted to join them.

It was the Annual Agricultural and Industrial Show on Sanday today. We had fabulous weather and a good time was had by all.

The first time I’ve had the camera switched on in ages. Must try harder.

There is no situation that is not improved by cake. Chocolate fatless sponge – whipped cream scented with chocolate essence and mixed with freeze-dried berries. Light as air and with the lifespan of a may fly.
