Welcome!

This blog is to introduce you to my town - Peebles, in the Scottish Borders - just one photo at a time, with perhaps a little description and maybe some history thrown in. I hope you will find it interesting. The title comes from a historical comment made by someone who preferred Peebles to the great and famous cities. I know how they felt. It's always a pleasure to return here however long you've been away.

If you want to make a comment, ask me a question, or merely just want to say "hello, I've dropped in", you can do that by using the comment section below each entry. (Just click on the word COMMENT and follow instructions. ) I'd love to know what you think of what you see of my town.

I don't have an expensive elaborate camera so the photo quality may not be brilliant, but I'd like to think my pics will please you. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks to Mary H for the lovely designs I used for my background, and thanks too to all of you who have chosen to support my blog by becoming "followers".

New leaves

Spring is definitely springing! A few warm days at the beginning of April got buds opening on the trees, but it has turned cooler since. It has to warm up again soon, surely! It's April, after all!

The Parish Church "crown" is having repair work done on it just now. Up alongside the scaffolding is the steeplejacks' company noticeboard. I mean, who can read it way up there!

This photo was taken from the path by the Cuddy Burn, just before the Tree (Trie)Bridge. Above the central lamppost you can see the triple windows at the back of the Buchan House on the High Street.
