Today the sun came out which was great. We went walking and climbed "the knock of Crieff." The views were lovely. Here are some East of Scotland weekend photos!
After our walk we went to Scotland's oldest distillery. It dates back to the 1700s. We had a tour round the place and then had a whisky tasting thing. Ergh, i do not like whisky! Was an interesting tour though.
It was really good to get away.
In stitching news....my stash finally arrived! 2 weeks to arrive from England, unbelievable! The Blackbird designs book is great and there are loads of charts in there that i want to stitch. Im working away on Amitie and have started working on Dollhouse again. I'll post some progress pictures during the week. I'm now awaiting the arrival of Donna's RR so i can get stitching on it. I've already decided what i'll be stitching for her. Can't wait to get going!

What an old distillery! My best friend in high school always said he wanted to travel to the UK someday because "they have pubs older than our country!" LOL

What a great mini break! I wish I could get Todd to do little trips like that!
Funny for me to read your post today, I was in Pethshire last month, ( Birnam ) and we visited the famouse grouse distillery as well !! I enjoyed your blog as I m a french stitcher married to a Scottish man and living in Paris.
It sounds like you had a wonderful time!
