Yesterday was the start of the Tweed Valley Forest Festival. In Peebles, there were a number of wood-workers on Tweed Green and some more in the Community Centre.

We had burgers for lunch, made by the lovely people from The Sunflower Restaurant.

Ben was given an apple by a man who was advertising his apple tree business. Apparently there are about 2,000 varieties of apple in the UK. This one, a little confusingly, is an ‘orange’ variety.

We also bought this whale from Kenneth of The Driftwood Studio, Traquair. I’ve been tasked with putting up a shelf for him to live on.
