WELCOME TO SKYE !

Thanks for visiting our Blog about our new life on Skye. We wanted to keep our family and friends updated on how our big move was going and how the house build was coming along and thought this would be the easiest way.

We've also included a couple of useful links to local websites (information on the Glendale area, wildlife and places to stay) which can be found at the bottom of the Blog.

We're loving our new life here and hope you enjoy reading our Blog and taking a look at some of our photos. Click on the Flickr link to the right to see a slideshow of our build progress . . . . .

Family Visit





Simon's Mum and Sister, Angela, came to visit us in July for a long weekend and we had a lovely time. The weather was gorgeous and it was great to just spend some time together relaxing. We celebrated Simon's 40th with them and went out for a nice meal. Angela took some fantastic photos, a few of my favourites are shown above.

It's Finished (on the outside anyway!)


The outside is finally finished (been busy painting hence the long delay in updating the blog!). It took about 140 litres of paint which was fun. The end result was worth it though, and it looks great now.
The inside is coming on well also. The floors are all down and the stud petitions are stood up, so you can now see the shape of all the rooms. The waste pipes are also fitted for the bathrooms / kitchen, now it's on to the 1st fix electrics and plumbing.
Weather has been fantastic here for the majority of the time spent working on the outside, so we've been really lucky. Lots of midges though!
