Bye Baby Bunting

Last Saturday, in anticipation of the Diamond Jubilee, Highland Angel attended a brilliant bunting masterclass at John Lewis in Edinburgh - because nothing says Jubilee more than a garden party, and nothing says garden party more than a bit of bunting.

Tea For Two - With A Twist


It is always exciting, when you live in a city and know it well, to discover somewhere new. Edinburgh is constantly keeping me on my toes and this week, surprised with a little hidden gem called Roseleaf.

Thou Shalt Covet Thy Neighbour's House

If you're the kind of person who loves snooping around Open House and Doors Open days, treasures every issue of Country Living and never misses an episode of Grand Designs, grab a cup of coffee and clear your schedule for the next 30 minutes before you read another word.

First Class


In New York City, the main building of the United States Postal Service bears the inscription: "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds." In Glasgow, pinned to a notice board at the Royal Mail sorting office, a sign reads: "If in doubt, deliver to Flat 1/1, 17 Montague Street, Glasgow, G4 9HU."

Reddy, Steady, Go!

Brrrrrrrrrrrlin


Without doubt, Berlin is the best - but coldest - place I have ever been. Whenever someone mentions to me that they're planning to visit the city, I can think of 101 things to tell them - hotels, restaurants, attractions, museums, shops... Remembering trips and travel tips has therefore inspired a new section of posts on our blog called "Bon Voyage" featuring photographs and recommendations from our holidays. The first, obviously, focusses on Berlin.
