Needed a cup of tea after a long drive to Cornwall. I love the Penguin Books mugs so pleased to spot these in our holiday cottage kitchen. I went for the Nancy Mitford. #stivescornwall @lovecornwalluk @st.ivesholidays #downalongstives #penguinbooks #cantbeatacupoftea #whitetea #booklover @penguinukbooks #mugoftea (at St Ives, Cornwall)

I'm not one to let an embarrassing auntie moment pass me by. Snapped my niece @jkfox with her debut children's storybook in @mainstreethare this evening. #paxtonthesheepdogwhocouldnt #childrensauthor #childrensbooks #independentbookshop #stboswells #jkfox #mainstreetbooks (at Saint Boswells, Scottish Borders, United Kingdom)

The Rock Pool Safari with the very knowledgeable and enthusiastic St Abbs and Eyemouth Marine Reserve Rangers was great fun today. Their determination to find a starfish for Amelia was impressive. @berwickshire_marine_reserve #rockpools #eyemouth #eyemouthbeach #marinelife #berwickshirecoast #lovescottishborders #rockpooling #scottishcoastalwaters #marinescience (at Eyemouth)

Top of the pile for reading in July, One Love by Gwendoline Riley (already finished it) and Attrib, a collection of stories by Eley Williams. Both books are the last two of four I'm reading to be ready for an #mooc online course which starts later this month. #gwendolineriley #eleywilliams #howtoreadanovel #lovetoread @futurelearn (at Midlem)

There was plenty to inspire this wee one inside and out at Old Gala House. Three fantastic exhibitions and a lovely garden. @liveborders #localhistory #galashiels #sunnydayout #francesteckkamcrafttextiles #borderknitster @energisegalashiels (at Old Gala House)

We have (that's the dogs and I) added a walk to our List of Favourite Walks. We followed the footpath from Maxton Kirk to the wobbly bridge on the Mertoun Estate across the River Tweed. Only a few miles there and back but perfect for a sunny evening. #walkingthedogs #walkscottishborders #getoutside @yourscottishborders #maxtontomertoun (at Maxton, Scottish Borders, United Kingdom)

Because of the controversy arond its TV dramatization I thought I should read #ordealbyinnocence. I've borrowed this 1961 #fontanabooks copy from my brother. #collinsfontanabooks #vintagebooks #agathachristie #bookcovers #crimewriters #bookcoverdesign #classiccrimefiction #williamcollinsofglasgow (at Midlem, Scottish Borders, United Kingdom)

Forestry clearances create strange landscapes. This is south of Ashkirk on the Borders Abbeys Way. The timber harvesting gives a clear view north to The Eildons and south towards Teviotdale. (Couldn't resist a scramble up the old fire lookout.) #timberharvesting #scottishborders #bordersabbeysway #getoutside #youcanseeformiles #walkscottishborders (at Ashkirk)

Difficult to get on with the To Do list today. I keep getting distracted by the view south to the Cheviot. #lovescottishborders #maysunshine #stopandlookaround (at Midlem, Scottish Borders, United Kingdom)
