Set within the stunning Cairngorms National Park, the Hilton Craigendarroch hotel offers spectacular views across the Dee Valley.

Hotel: Hilton Craigendarroch Hotel, Ballater Meals: Dinner Balmoral Castle Day 2 – Saturday, August 1 Our day today starts early, with a short drive to Balmoral Castle where we will spend the day. Set in the shadows of Lochnagar, lie the 50,000 acres of the Balmoral Estate. In her journals Queen Victoria described Balmoral as "my dear paradise in the Highlands" and once you have visited, you can see why. Darren talks about the “magic” of Balmoral and throughout the day he will share memories from the eleven years he visited… Meeting the Queen for the first time, chased by the royal corgis, Royal Tupperware parties in the hills, Princess Diana locked out of the Castle, making picnics for William and Harry to take to the ‘beach’… and so much more. But we begin with a Luxury Land Rover Safari tour of the amazing estate through HMY Britannia the heather clad hills and ancient Caledonian woodland. After lunch, we’ll step into the beautiful Balmoral ballroom where Chef Darren twirled and danced with Princess Diana year after year at the ‘Ghillies Ball’. Tour the vegetable gardens that supply the royal table and visit the Garden Cottage where Queen Victoria would take breakfast each day. Evening at leisure to explore the many fine restaurants and craft stores of Ballater.

Some of us may play golf, go to the beach, or simply do a little shopping in their antique shops and galleries. But oh, we can’t depart this seaside Town without first stopping for Fish & Chips on the marina. Once back in Edinburgh, we must drop by the famous Chocolate Lounge at Harvey Nichols. No culinary tour is complete with doing a little chocolate tasting and sampling…we might even pick up some for our Cooking class. We will dine tonight at the famous “The Kitchin” restaurant.

  • YKC Spotlight on Art Dookie.Pdf
    Spotlight on Art Dookie Dookie by Lucy Dawson Copyright: The Kennel Club Arts Foundation This lovely pastel is of the Welsh Corgi Dookie by Lucy Dawson. Dookie was very special as he was the first Corgi owned by King George VI, Her Majesty The Queen’s father. It was because of Dookie that the then Princess Elizabeth fell in love with the breed and has become one of the longest established breeders of Corgis. Dookie, whose Kennel Name was Rozavel Golden Eagle was bred by Thelma Gray in 1933 and as we know was the first in a long line of Royal Corgis. Dookie was chosen by His Majesty King George VI because he had a slightly longer tail than his litter mates. This appealed to the then Princess Elizabeth as she wanted him to have something to wag so that she would know if he was pleased or not. The artist is Lucy Dawson. She was particularly well known for her book illustrations and also produced a number of postcards under the pseudonym ‘Mac’. Many will recognise this as the name that appears on a lot of her work. She drew this portrait of Dookie at Royal Lodge, Windsor. Dookie by Lucy Dawson Your activity The artist has used pastels for this portrait as she did with most of her work. Have a closer look at it - what do you like about it? It’s a lovely memory of a first childhood pet. Perhaps you could draw a memory you have of when you first got your dog? Maybe it could be the first time they came home, or with the first toy you bought them? Have fun creating a lovely memory to keep!.

Animals Australia works to protect the most vulnerable and abused animals in our society. They are investigating and trying to stop exporting our sheep which has recently had evidence of inhumane conditions and treatment while being exported on large ships. Hopefully when people power gets into full swing things might just change for all animals who are treated unfairly and cruelly. On a lighter note, last week’s Woodlands Book Launch was a huge success with NBN reporter and camera man joining us.
