A Year End Message

At the end of 05 a message from the Psalms which celebrates the past and awakens us to the future. 

Matthew again!

Becoming quite a socialite is our Matthew! At the Marcliffe for afternoon tea! 

Lillie Jordan Memorial Seat

This is a seat in memory of a Burghead Primary School Teacher. It has views of the bay west towards Findhord, the seat itself is about 400 yds from her home, the old bank house. Lillie Jordan was an infant teacher until mid 80's? I remember her as an astute lady who was always keen to know how her former pupils were doing. I was surprised to see this seat but thought that it was a fitting tribute to a woman who helped generations of the villages children see new horizons.

This is a school friend from Burghead with his family. Mum Sarah, Scott, Kirsty and Kerr. Michael and I keep in touch and enjoy a shared intrest in things 'Burheadish'.

Vigilant UL 55

I chose to Blog this because this is a boat that I remember from years ago. It was built in the 50's and I think was an original 'ring net' boat used for catching herring. Since then it has had a successful career with its Lossie skipper for as long as I can remember. 

The Party

Lossiemouth beach and skerry

Burnt toast

Seconds after I threw this burn toast out it became a meal. One man's waste is another squirrel's breakfast! 

A summer visitor

This was one morning whilst we were having breakfast in the garden.

A friend took this at a wedding a few days ago. 

Rescue

This was the official RNLI Christmas Card in 2003. The sense of rage in the sea coupled with the effort of the crew and the plight of the ship combine to make a powerful image of rescue.
