Cyril - Saturday, 3 November 2012
There is a squirrel who frequents our back garden on occasion. We have given him the name of Cyril. This afternoon he was back and the camera was handy.

Cycling along Union Canal
Here is my freedom on wheels - a lovely red bike.
Billy bought it years ago and it has been stored at back of the garage flat-tyred, very sad and in want of a cheerful spin in the fresh air. We had it worked on and put back to good health.
Last weekend's weather in Falkirk was full of lovely sunshine. It was a perfect time to take the bike out for a ride along Union Canal. This canal and pathway runs from Falkirk all the way to Edinburgh.
I decided to ride in the opposite direction and take the path from Redding Road to the Falkirk Wheel which is roughly a 10 mile return.
Here are some of my photos on Sunday 21st October.

RAF Leuchars Air Show 2012
On Saturday 15 September, RAF Leuchars hosted the
only remaining Battle of Britain Air Show, and second largest non-sporting
outdoor event in Scotland. The 2012 show will probably be the last as the RAF Leuchars base is to close with the Army expected to take up residence in 2015 onwards.
We headed off for the day by car - Billy's dad and Barbara, Danny and Mary (Billy's brother and sister-in-law) and me. Leuchars is in Fife which is on the east coast of Scotland near the University town of St Andrews.
Here are a few photos of the day.
