At the bottom of each post there is the word "comments". If you click on it you will see comments made by followers, and if you follow the instructions you may also comment and I always welcome that. I have found many people overlook this part of the blog which is often more interesting than the original post!

My blog nick-name is SIR HUGH. I'm not from the aristocracy - my middle name is Hugh which relates to the list of 282 hills in Scotland compiled by Sir Hugh Munro in 1891. I climbed my last one (Sgurr Mor) on 28th June 2009

 Saturday 27th December 2025

Granddaughter Katie organised a painting competition for us on Boxing Day.

 A Bob Ross video was played on Katie's laptop. An extensive range of oil paints and brushes were supplied. Suitable Bob Ross headgear was donned, and off we went. Unfortunately I was seated to one side and soon lost track of the video and launched off onto my own creation.

Mum and Katie made a good attempt at following the instructions and finished up with passable results but I reckon my effort owed more to Jackson Pollok

BOXING DAY

It all became more chaotic and good fun as we progressed


Paint everywhere. We had paper table cloth which double up as our palette

Less said

Katie was undoubtedly the winner

Not bad from Mum
