Happy St Andrews Day!

In honour of the Patron Saint of my lovely homeland, I've raided the net in search of some ink with a Scottish influence. However to give myself a wee bit of a challenge I've decided to stay away from traditional Celtic designs, I'll cover these sometime next year. (Oh and no Mel Gibson tattoos allowed!)

First though to get me in the mood for some good auld Scottish Pride, I thought I'd post some images that say Scotland to me!
First, the scenery:

I took this image in Scourie when camping, obviously a wee bit of post work here, but you get the idea!


This beautiful image is from Am Bothan, the blog of my good freind Anna.
Go check out her blog!


The Castles of course


Not minding the mud at a festival


And of course the most beautiful Ginger in the world, The Good Bru!


Okay, with that out the way here we go! I've ended up with a thistle theme, cos I love thistles, Enjoy!
