Damp Grey and windless and its like that outside as well. Perfect weather for our Chritmas trip to Norn Iron-the first time in our married lives that the wife and I have xmassed in our Newcastle Cottage. A daughter in Oz, another in Colorado and a third in Welsh Wales we are missing a family holiday and having a good rest. So next Thurday its off to Stranraer in the gloom. More about the Merse before then of course but not to day. The Merse is right out of bloggable news. Patience.
