Woke at 5am, #visible illness tracker gave me a 1/5 for the day but felt clear enough apart from quite a lot of bone pain so went to shops for soap & bonus cakes. Got home to alerts I've used all my spoons for the day and a feeling like I'm sinking into the ground, going to prop myself up on the bed for the day now and try out these controller controls on Satisfactory.
I did try one of the cakes and they are mindblowingly awesome though so it was worth it. #MECFS #MPN #invisibleillness #crieff

Been very low on #spoons the back half of this week, but charging myself up with light therapy so I can get washed and help my daughter take her #paintings up to #strathearnarts to be displayed for six months. #mecfs #spoonies #PerthKinross #crieff

Well the weather in #crieff is in full swing, already had a powercut which also showed me my #homeserver setup does not reboot gracefully so that's something I need to work on.
I hope everyone is being a safe as they can while this beast of a storm rattles by. #stormEowyn

The pub in Crieff’s main square is owned by a couple of Spanish guys. Tomorrow night should be interesting!😂

This image captures a tranquil rural scene in Scotland, specifically Crieff, around the turn of the 20th century. The photograph showcases an open field where several people are scattered across the landscape, engaged in various activities such as walking or standing still. The field is enclosed by a simple fence, and beyond it, there is a village nestled on a hill, with a church prominently visible among the houses. The architecture of the buildings and the clothing of the people provide subtle hints of the time period captured in this image. The overall composition of the photograph emphasizes the peaceful coexistence between nature and human settlements, as well as the simplicity of rural life at that time.

Wee sneaky view into the Glenturret warehouses when we wandered past today. Honestly doesn't matter how many times you've seen them imo, distilleries always look something special.

#Whisky #Crieff #Perthshire #Glenturret #Distillery

A square photo looking through an open warehouse door at rows of whisky barrels, stacked three high and extending backwards out of view. 'Glenturret 2023' is printed on all the barrels. On the door outside the warehouse is a sign that says 'Glenturret Warehouse No 06'.
