Whippet Wisdom – a Highland Journey
A journey through the seasons with two adopted whippets, a poet and a camera
at peace
the crow and I
side by side
we have more directions
in which to wander

Wishing you all a wonderful Thursday and a peaceful rest of the week,

It is heart-warming to see many people spreading the light at a time when it is much needed.
Football games are currently on hold in Scotland and Nairn County Football Club published the following statement on their website:
With regards to our fans and the community as a whole. Well we are not playing football for the foreseeable future, so if we can help on a Saturday with anyone in self isolation, be it picking up your shopping, getting your prescription to you or even just walking the dog, drop us a message or give us a call and we will sort something out for you.
Nobody knows how long this virus will be with us, it could be a long haul, but we want you to know that your Club is with you. You have supported us, now its our turn to do the same for you.
Ian Finlayson, Secretary, Nairn County FC
A very big thank you to all the people who are working tirelessly to keep everything moving forward.
If you have a positive story to share, please let us know in the comments and help spread a little more light.
