SOS - Men in Kilts

I hope your weekend has been as good as mine!

I had the hard job and a lot of fun this week putting the pop up shop together, yes it literally popped up over night and opened the next day.

Today the town of Forres played host to the Pipe Band European Championship's and the town was awash with men and women in kilts, all shapes sizes and ages , all looking splendid in their kilts. Over 3000 participants in the competition today in Grant Park. We had a good few visitors to the town into the shop and I must shout out to the ladies from Ireland who where accompanying their husbands who were stewarding at the competition. I love the Irish twang, especially in Gerard Butler, but today he was a no show!

Here is the Facebook page for the pop up shop at NO 44 high street Forres.
And here is my favourite picture of the store window with the adorable Amugurmi Characters which made their debut at our opening. One of which is heading back to Ireland!




Much excitement on the farm this week with the arrival of a new pup,
 at 11 weeks old, FIN is still very much a lost pup, making all those wining noises and little barks.
The kids are tickled with their new pet  farm collie.

OH and I entered the world of iphones, still cant send a text but will at least be contactable when there is an emergency, like running out of milk, you know how it is. Just have to remember to keep it charged and attached to my chest just in case it rings.

Enjoy your Sunday and the week that follows.
{watch out for a new post on Thursdays}
Take care
Karen
