The Moffat ram has acquired a cone, this may be to cover up his (rumoured) missing ears… The fabulous gravestone is for the Pinder circus family in Dumfries. Made it up to Scone horse trials with Jessica and Rebecca, apparently I only took photos of all the Bavarians I spotted - these two belonged to the Hiho Silver Jewellery trade stand. Then we went to the last night of the Edinburgh tattoo.

Chamfron Outings
Pretty sure the first lad is the 2011 Arrayan Numa foal out of Wearview Gypsy, now well in his teens. Chamfron Paloma has been having fun at area 8 camp and Chamfron Compostela has been out showing (love her current colour!)

Garden Update
The garden is starting to settle and soften now, two trolley loads of plants went in the border of disappointment and everywhere got a good layer of bark. We will repeat a visit to the Borders college plant sale next year as every plant is thriving and has flowered all summer long. Loads of toads and frogs and a hummingbird moth have visited and we have a bumper crop of strawberries.

More Endurance
Chamfron Colorado was out last weekend, a 50km at Sheeppark. This weekend was Tentsmuir with Colorado back out for another 50km and Chamfron by Dand cruising round the 30km. Not much Chamfron action down south, probably because they’ve been living in an oven for months and the ground is harder than concrete.

Newhails Doocot
I enjoy finding something a little unexpected on a walk so I loved seeing the residents (some of which had travelled internationally) of the Newhails Doocot!
