Cheers, I must admit to being rather chuffed; going back hopefully on Tuesday as they are hatching the eggs now so feed visits should intensify.

We still love you Sean for everything you did for the club and the town!

Good luck for the future and don’t forget to give your new team/squad a little bit more freedom to be spontaneous and creative because after all football is and always will be ‘the beautiful game’.

This bank holiday has mainly been about 4am starts.... very early season in the Osprey season, but needed a trip to check out a few things ahead of a week based around them later in the year. Here's a couple of photos from 2 very cold mornings

Enjoy Bosscat, and if you spot Nessie make sure you get a good snap.

Very nice... if you're looking for things to do, then Dolphin watching at Chanonry Point (an hour after low tide onwards), Red Kites at RSPB Tollie Red Kites and Red Deer in Strathconnon are all good to do up there. Dornoch beach is nice for a walk.

It's far easier on the A82 and you don’t need wet weather tyres.
Gorgeous part of the world.

Highly recommend Ljubljana. Only probably 2 days worth in the city but within easy reach are Lake Bled, Postonja caves(largest in Europe) and Predjama Castle. All worth the trip.

Fantastic Trevor... Your right about the city but Lake Bled and the caves are great ... the wife and I were visited a couple of years ago

Thanks TT, spent a good few days with them over the last couple of weeks, waiting for these moments. Took until they were 9 days old to start using the parents as transport, and then only 1 at a time.
