August 12th Moved to our new home in the highlands. I 'm so excited. It's beautiful here. The hills look so majestic, can hardly wait to see the snow. The garden's beautiful and there's loads of bunnies hopping around. Isn't nature wonderful?
*************************
October 14th The Scottish Highlands. It's the most beautiful place on earth. The leaves have all turned hues of orange and red. Went for a drive in the beautiful valleys and saw some deer, they are such graceful beasts. They come down low at this time of the year but are at risk from those cruel poachers. Can't imagine why anyone would want to kill them. They are certainly the most wonderful creatures on earth.
*************************
November 30th St Andrews Day Really getting into the place now. Can't wait for the snow I love it here.
*************************
December 19th Yes it's started snowing. The first real snow I've seen here. I took out some buttered scones and sat by the window watching the snowflakes drift down, clinging to the trees and covering the ground, and the wee rabbits were skipping around and trying to dodge the flakes. It was so beautiful.
*************************
December 20th Awoke to a lovely blanket of crystal white snow covering the landscape. What a fantastic sight. Looked like a Christmas card. Every tree and shrub covered with a white mantle. We went outside and had a snowball fight and then energetically shoveled snow for the first time and loved it. I did both the driveway and pavement. Later the council's snow plough accidentally covered the driveway with compact snow from the street, but the driver smiled and waved so I waved back and shoveled again. What a beautiful place I love it.
*************************
December 21st It snowed an additional 4 inches last night, the temperature dropped to minus 10. Several limbs on the trees and shrubs snapped due to the weight of the snow, and the rabbits are having to dig for their food. I shoveled the driveway again, Shortly afterwards the snow plough man came by and did his trick again. Much of the snow is brownish grey, Blisters appearing on my hands due to the shoveling.
*************************
December 22nd Warmed up during the day to create some slush and saw patches of grass, to reveal that the b******d rabbits have eaten all my bulbs.
Slush soon turned to ice as the temperature dropped again. I bought some snow tyres for the car. Fell on my a**e on the frozen rabbit s**t in the driveway, £75 for the chiropractor, but nothing broken. F*****g vermin!! More snow and ice forecast.
*************************
December 23rd Bitterly cold, Sold the car and bought a 4x4 in order to get to work. Slid into some Armco crash barrier and inflicted some considerable damage to the right rear quarter of the 4x4. Don't know why the don't use more salt on the roads. Had another 5 inches of the white s**t last night.
4X4 covered in snow and slush, more shoveling in store for me today. That !!!!!! snow plough came by twice today, B*****D.
*************************
December 24th Minus 15 degrees outside today. More f*****g snow, not a tree, shrub or bulb on the property that hasn't been damaged or eaten.
Power was off most of the night, tried to keep from freezing to death with candles and a paraffin heater, which I tripped over and nearly burnt the !!!!!! house down. I managed to but the flames out, but suffered second degree burns to my hands and lost all my eyebrows and eyelashes.
*************************
December 25th Merry F*****g Christmas. That white s**t still keeps coming f******g down! Have to put on all the clothes I have just to get to the postbox. If I ever get to that son of a b***h that drives that snow plough, I'll chew his chest and rip his f*****g heart out. I think he hides around the corner and waits for me to finish shoveling, then comes down the road about 100 miles an hour and buries our driveway again, Power still off, the toilet has frozen over now, and part of the roof has started to cave in due to the weight of the snow. Weatherman has predicted another 6 inches of snow tonight. Do you know how many shovelfuls 6 inches is? F*****g weatherman was wrong; not 6inches but 12 inches of the f*****g stuff fell last night. The snow plough got stuck up the road and the driver asked to borrow my shovel !! I wounded the a**ehole with my ice pick, but the b*****d got away. I can't move or feel my toes and there is more snow predicted. Wind chill factor of 32 f*****g degrees below.
*************************
December 30th Finally got out of the house today, drove to the shops to get some supplies and on the way back, a dammed deer ran out in front of the 4X4, did about £3000 of damage. Those f*****g beasts should all be shot, the b*****ds are everywhere. Wish the poachers had exterminated the lot in the autumn.
*************************
December 31st Took the 4X4 to the garage, It'll be weeks before I get it back as they're closed for Hogmany. Would you believe it, the !!!!!! thing is rusted underneath from all that f*****g salt they put all over the roads.
