Love my family and friends. Retired. Can't wait to travel more and share my love of history.

@edinburghpaper Playing in saughton park as a kid. Hearing the lions roar from the zoo. The castle, the Royal Mile on and on an amazing place to grow up… before moving to Canada 54 years ago😊

[ishbel newstead @IshbelN]

@Beathhigh Yes we love you@beathhigh.

[ishbel newstead @IshbelN]

@Beathhigh I love that you’re here in Vancouver, my place of residence for 52 years. Grew up in Edinburgh and went to Boroughmuir. Couldn’t get tickets but enjoy your time here.

[ishbel newstead @IshbelN]

@Beathhigh Hope it goes well. I’m so sorry I can’t attend. Tickets all sold out.

@empoweringmoms Thanks Kelley. Too bad we didn’t get any pumpkin pie this year but peach was a good substitute 😋

[ishbel newstead @IshbelN]

@empoweringmoms Congratulations Kelley. Sounds like a wonderful opportunity! Way to go and very best of luck.

[ishbel newstead @IshbelN]

@empoweringmoms Stay😅❤️

@empoweringmoms @JasNuss You do and so do I💕

@empoweringmoms Amazing! Such well behaved horses too!

@empoweringmoms Indeed she did. Living in Edinburgh I had the pleasure of seeing the Queen many times- mostly driving along my street on her way to Holyrood Palace. She was always my Queen and today was a lovely tribute to her. Unbelievable organization too!

@empoweringmoms My favourite book of all time. Never tired of reading our grandkids exploits 💕

@AckermanBooks @cliffgarstang Not to go on about your great writing… but we’ve visited the Big Island x11 - 12 coming up in October. Mauna Kea is our favourite beach ( if we can get a pass) but I didn’t know about the history of the hotel. Got to go there for lunch or dinner this trip.

[ishbel newstead @IshbelN]

@AckermanBooks @cliffgarstang I’m excited because I’m starting Codebreakers Secret today. Thanks for all the our great books.

@mrodesmi @empoweringmoms So hard to believe she’s gone.

@empoweringmoms @steveyeun Excellent movie. So realistic and heartwarming

[ishbel newstead @IshbelN]

@CKNW Used to enjoy going to the park - yes driving to the park- and having a picnic on the grassy slopes. It was such a pleasure to enjoy the view. All gone now thanks to the lack of accessible parking.

@mathieson_scott @mathieson_scott Amazing. Never see beauties like these in@BC anymore!

@empoweringmoms That’s so interesting. I knew crows are supposed to be super intelligent and now we know how they really team up
