Summer days like that are priceless, aren't they!

All your churches are beautiful but the insides are never how I would imagine them to be from viewing the exterior.

The church looks as if it should be much darker, and more ornate, doesn't it? I'll do St Ninian's sometime - it actually is stone inside, rather than whitewashed, and so rather different.

I agree. I expect them to look like the churches in East Anglia in England that we visited during our 3 weeks living there in 2001. It surprises me to see the inside looking so modern! But WOW, the listings of all the priests! The first didn't even have a last name!

Sounds like a wonderful Sunday. Here's to more like it.

Congrats to Mark- he did you guys proud.

A very lazy day - but nice.

Mark did so well - D-d was at school with him, although in a lower year.

*grins happily* you made my day. i remember all the gorgeous painted sections on the walls and heh yes the outside of the church having numerous wedding photos taken there. Now that we have our new scanner at work I shall make an effort to scan in the photos that Lee took and post them here. I have stood in that churchyard in my knickers :-D

I'm so glad that you noticed them!

And - I have stood in that churchyard in my knickers :-D - better than standing there without them...

Well I was changing into my wedding dress at the time..

They are fab. My niece and nephew are on their way here from the IOM tomorrow and my BiL comes over the weekend of Writercon.....

Pretty pictures, and yay for Cavendish.

We love the way that, when he was being downright rude to reporters, Cav was a Manx rider - but as soon as he begins to win stages again the BBC call him 'British rider Mark Cavendish'....

I always love your Sunday pixspam. I'm positive you live in paradise.

Your whole day sounds lovely - it is waaayyy to hot around here to cook anything!

curiouswombat July 25 2010, 20:24:22 UTC

The temp today was about 18C - mid 60sF. Cold to some people, but pleasant to our taste.

The island isn't paradise - but I do love it.
