It's lovely here today so far. We had rain yesterday which was quite welcome but it's cool and sunny this morning.

Our guests went out for an early walk to take photos around the area, those Ochills look good with the early morning sun on them.

sleet/wet snow showers. very cold last night. the 3 that have lambed are in with there lambs. we really don't have room for them all. so i hope it improves. the forcast is for wintery showers and the odd gale.
