    This year has been very stressful so I decided to do something different this year and booked a log cabin in the Highlands of Scotland. Meg and I had the most wonderful time in this beautiful country. Here are a few photos. meg duck.jpg meg 2.jpg escaping (2).jpg meg on log.jpg cabin.jpg 3 sisters.jpg across logs.jpg blue sky.jpg cloud.jpg

                      :wow:

                      Megan was on her (canine) own? :hate-shocked: :thud: You should have said ... Ozzy would have enjoyed keeping her company! And you and I could have shared a bottle of wine while I chaperoned them :heehee:

                      Wonderful location, fabulous snaps! Wishing you a 2015 far less stressful, full of moments to treasure and a year which brings you (and Megan) the love and luck you genuinely deserve :santa hug:
