Castle Roy

A first or two for the Castle today. Firstly thanks to Jack frost or who ever it is responsible for the white stuff 🙂 and a huge thanks to Caroline Clark for letting us know that there was a wee snippet about our favourite orange ones worldly adventures. Daily Express 8/11/19. If anyone near by has a copy we would love it when you have finished with it.

Thank you very much from Himself with the warm horns and his wee Pumpkin pal... who has been on wee social media adventures of his own 😉

🎃The last of the Baahicans has gone... poor Buster has decided to be the one to welcome in Halloween in his own special way 🎃

👻🧛‍♂️🧛‍♀️🧙‍♀️HAPPY 🎃 HALLOWEEN🧙‍♂️🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️👻

🎃So today he was popped into his wee pen and his mohican was snipped and then....oh dear... Murdo was a little stunned by the result but probably best that for a wee while they have their own space. (Murdo needed a wee bitty more to eat, however, Buster did not!) so please see the result of my 'trick' but he did gets 'treats' 🎃

🎃No animals were harmed in the making of the pumpkin, it is sheep marker spray and perfectly safe for him... however my toes got stepped on repeatedly so karma has been instant 🎃

Castle mower here, l have a message for all the castle fans. Due to some landscaping work going on possibly next week l shall be out on the drive from around 4pm Saturday afternoon and 10am Sunday morning. Then possibly again around, 4pm Sunday until 9am Monday. The main gates will be locked. I am sorry for any inconvenience caused. My slave asks me to remind you there is a telephone number on the gate if anyone wants to visit. Thank you

MURDO 🐂

The shed has had a coat of paint and I amazed at how many of the wildflowers are still about. They are so colourful!

****1000 signatures in the visitors book****
Congratulations to Neill being our 1000th signature in the book in 2019. Hopefully a nice little bonus to the trip for him and his wife 🙂 This does not include the visitors we see but miss catching and is probably only a smidgeon of the folk who stop by when no one is about, l found out there were at least 12 yesterday 🙂
