@DennisBorder If you don’t necessarily want a pup these guys often have BT’s looking for a sofa to sleep on and a human to boss about. They have a lot more info and piccies on FB ; good luck and look forward to seeing the new inmate! https://t.co/k7yHpXf7c0

@HaggisAdele @AingeBarbara Big hill to the side - will that affect how much light you get when the sun moves round? I did not realise how much it meant to me until I moved to a house with a big hill to the rear- left within a couple of years cos house/garden was in shade from 4pm even in height of summer

@bemorebob2 Me please from Cowal, Argyll & Bute

@VeronicaTrotsky @KirstieMAllsopp @HMRCgovuk Yep - anybody got any idea how to resolve it as Companies House are also refusing to confirm ID with this situation. Have raised it with them - no solution suggested.

[Tartan Border @DoontheeWatter]

@HaggisAdele @RokAndWag Oh my; they are amazing!

@moving_charlie Did not come up when searched for a 4 bed flat on RMove, cos summary shows it as a 3. Photos highlight rather than detract from the sloping ceilings.

[Tartan Border @DoontheeWatter]

@BonnieBooBT Can depend on which area you are visiting but generally should still be ok in April and early May. Best anti midge repellant is Smidge

@mabelandstanley Ooh, looks fab- we iz looking for a place to stay near Lossie in Sept, are you able to share details please?

[Tartan Border @DoontheeWatter]

@g__j Never mind a heat pump, where’s the smart meter I have been waiting for for the last year?

This little guy was left all by himself, lonely and lost at Kilcreggan Pier.

I’m sure someone is devastated to realise he is not with them.

If you can tell me what is inside I will make sure Pooh returns home.

Fantastic footage of the dolphins who were in Kilnaughton Bay, Islay on Sunday (June 4) evening. This was shot by some Norwegian yachties who were anchored opposite @IslayBeachHouse and were accompanied by the pod on their dinghy trip to shore.

It's really tough being an independent business in the UK. We watch huge corporations with massive marketing budgets gobble up customers and then paying almost zero tax.

This morning for example, we went into a beautiful coffee shop and had amazing coffee and food, but the place was really quiet. Walked past two famous chain coffee shops, with poor food and average coffee, and they were rammed.

What chance do us small indies have? We can't undercut the big boys, we can't match their marketing spend. So we do what we can, we offer personal service, good quality and we chip away as best we can. This takes time, sadly time is also our enemy as we have to pay ourselves, pay our staff and pay the bills to simply exist.

A massive thank you to all who choose to buy a bike or use us for a service, to those who choose an independent coffee shop or clothes shop or deli etc etc.

Let's not accept homogeneous shopping and leisure experiences. Choose alternatives. When you do you're helping individuals to eat and pay bills rather than lining the pockets of people who don't even care about the products they sell, they simply want returns on investments.

The bigger independents like us get the more people we employ, the more tax we pay and the more we contribute to society, your society.

We work incredibly hard to simply be noticed. So please spend a few minutes thinking about choosing an independent brand above the ones who have the massive advantages over us.

Sorry for the long ramble but it needs to be said.

[Tartan Border @DoontheeWatter]

@HaggisAdele And me too! Great minds!

@BonnieBooBT @lynniehamish Ooh, it’s marmite for me and mum. Dad, he likes jam
