Getting Started
by
Jon
on Sat 16 Jun 2007 05:14 PM BST
Big move to Glen Loy in the heart of the Scottish Highlands less then 3 weeks away. Am setting up this blog to let folk know about what we see and do when we get there. Hope you enjoy my nature notes and more.
Will hopefully start making regular postings once we are up and settled in. In the meantime moving continues lurching between mini-crises and is predictably painful.
