News From Great Britain:  

Dear Clans folk,

The summer is now upon us and the weather in Scotland has been very dry with almost drought conditions. We, in the gardens at Castle Kennedy, have had to pump water from the Loch to the Walled Garden.  The bedding out of plants was finished last week to give the late summer display of colour in the garden.

  On Sunday June 8th we had our Clan Gathering at Lockerbie Manor Country Hotel, Lockerbie.  We had a nice lunch and a raffle with prizes to help with the funding of the 2009 Clan Gathering in Edinburgh. All had a good time and I finished the day by playing the bagpipes.

 Aye, John

News From Great Britain:  

Dear Clans Folk,

 

I hope this finds you all well and trust that you will have a great summer. The weather here is Scotland has been quite wet, but signs of spring are appearing. The Sweet Chestnut trees are budding, the rhododendrons are blossoming, and the daffodils are in full bloom. It appears that it spring will come early to Scotland this year.

 

I would like to thank you for your cards and best wishes to my mother during the time of her hip surgery. The operation was a success and she is improving daily.

 

Best wishes to all from Lorraine and myself here at Castle Kennedy Gardens.

 

Aye, John
