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".

The daffs?


Usually by now the daffodils are blooming, tall green stems and yellow heads nodding in the March wind! Well this is how most of them are looking right now. The last few days have been reasonably mild and the buds have appeared, but they still need to grow a bit. They almost look like overgrown crocuses just now. Yes, they have a way to go before they'll be "fluttering and dancing in the breeze"

    I have finally found you,... I would love to visit Scotland. I have been looking for a Scottish blogger, to learn more about your homeland. I look forward to following your blog. Great post.

    The daffs are only just beginning to come out here - very cold but no snow at lower levels - some on the Pennines though I hear.
