Katie - you are just so naturally gorgeous! And Scott - the botanical shots today were sublime! When you trail the camera through the flowers and foliage down at ankle height (you've done so before as well), it has for me a sort of timelessness or time-warp effect - transports me to centuries past or some such. I'm sure it's just me... I can't quite explain it.

I think that every episode, Katie is one of the prettiest ladies l have ever seen. Another delightful episode both of you. l said to my husband half way through this episode that it is better than anything on the television ( which l don’t even bother to see what is on nowadays!) Delightful, picturesque and informative. Thankyou Scott and Katie.

Line the base of your trailer with 3/4 inch ply. It absorbs the weight and helps distribute the load. Also I’d be inclined to bolt a couple of steel strips on the base to cover those tears and reinforce the base.

The way I know it is.. If the Oak is out before the Ash t'will be a year of wet and splash. But if the Ash before the Oak t'will be a year of fire and smoke. It's proved itself true over the years. It's certainly been a year of wet and splash this year in the north of Scotland. 2024.

The In/On debate is interesting. Here it's "in" Orkney or "in" whichever island you stay on. I think it's the same in Shetland. I know the biggest no no here is saying "in the Orkneys" it's "in Orkney" as in the county of Orkney. I like to think it's "in" because you're in a community. Probably not that though.

The trailer can be strengthened by using drilled fish plates to sandwich the thin trailer skin or even use marine ply which would help in the short term. In the long term the bottom floor need’s stiffening to prevent vibration especially when empty.

Greetings from an island off NZ! It might be worth checking on the heat coming off the rocks in the afternoon sun for the starlink receiver?

I've never been to the UK in spring, but I've heard so many people say the bluebells are just beautiful. No image I've seen of them until yours has explained this strong outpouring of appreciation. NOW I understand (as best I can without actually being there). Could anything be prettier? Well, maybe a tiny lamb nestled so contentedly in Katie's lap. And thanks, Scott, for sharing your archeological finds. You're not the only one who finds wear patterns and the patina of use and/or of neglect (rust) potent reminders of members of our human tribe who have been on the very spot of earth we are now. How long ago did the person on your island sit and eat their porridge or stew and set that spoon down, not to be found until centuries later? Also, I just want to say the music in this episode was superb - Katie mentions what the sound track to the activity could be, and there it is. Brilliant!

Your moon-rise, landscape and flower shots inspire so much hope. Here in the High Rockies, the moon is the same gorgeous, but we are still a good month out from flowers. The lilacs are just showing some timid buds. You have to be the best lamby parents there are, teaching her how to play! Adorable! I feel a little bad because, if my guy had had such good care takers, he might still be around. I inherited him in return for a good deed because he was no longer compatible with his flock, but I wasn't knowledgeable enough to take proper care of him. So sad. I am heartened to see you fixing the trailer instead of just thoroughgoing up your hands and thoroughgoing it out I'm really glad you weren't hurt. We should all have a bit more of that mentality! I love old silverware. My favorite family pieces I have are worn baby spoons. Chopping wood is an honorable use of time and I chide anyone who devalues it. I can't wait to see what the inevitable metal detector turns up.
