Our latest in a long line of elections and referenda has now taken place and they tell us that we now have “certainty” (debatable perhaps) but I wonder actually how much in life really is ever certain and if it was wouldn’t it all get a bit tedious?

Stability, maybe, but sometimes the unexpected can be fun and add a worthwhile challenge to life. I suppose, a good balance is probably what we are after. The ability to know most of what is round the corner but also have the opportunity to be surprised from time to time. As they say “Variety is the Spice of Life” - Anon!

PASTORAL LETTER & CHURCH MEETINGS

St Peter During the year there are a number of Saints days – some examples being St Patrick in March, St Andrew in November and towards the end of June - St Peter.

Peter is sometimes referred to as the 'Prince of the Apostles' because of the words of Jesus renaming him from Simon to Cephas. (This was the Aramaic form of the Greek word Peter, which means 'rock'). Jesus said “I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church” (Matthew 16:18) Peter may be one of the leading apostles in the early church, but what I love most about him is his humanity and ordinariness as a humble fisherman. He is so often seen in scripture as someone who is impetuous – he opens his mouth and says exactly what he is

thinking, before thinking about what he is saying! A man full of fears and frailties, exactly as we all are. As Jesus is arrested, Peter is asked three times - aren’t you are one of his disciples? Three times his reply is - No not me! At Jesus’ greatest hour of need, when support was most needed, there is Peter saying “I don’t know him”.

You could almost understand Jesus walking away from Peter giving up on him. I am sure many of us, when let down so badly, would do just that, but no; we have that wonderful resurrection story of Jesus by the Lake of Galilee having breakfast with his disciples and then asking Peter, “Peter, do love me?” three times. And each time Peter responds Jesus says these words “Feed my sheep”.

Not only does Jesus forgive Peter for each of the times he denies him, but he also entrusts him with

something very precious - the nurture and care of his followers the church. Peter goes from denial to being the one who stands up and addresses the crowd as the church begins to grow and develop.

It reflects God’s love and forgiveness that Jesus forgives Peter; but it is also a reminder that God can take even that which seems so flawed, mould it and shape it to bring glory to himself.

How willing are we to forgive those who hurt us; not just to forgive, but also to give them another chance to grow and develop into something new and beautiful?

Words by the Wayside “...reconciled to God by the death of His Son.�

ali paterson ltd.

(Romans 5:10)

Reader, you need to have your sins washed away and be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ and His atoning death. It is the only way of salvation. There is only one mediator between God and Men; the man Christ Jesus. No greater love can He show for you than by giving His life on Calvary’s Cross for you, that if you would repent of your sins and receive Christ as your only Saviour and then you will have peace with God.  Have you been reconciled with God through His Son?

Another highlight is the Afternoon Tea – everything is baked freshly for this on the day of your booking.

There is a menu, but Rosemount would rather provide guests with a meal that they have chosen rather than stick rigidly to the menu – all you need to do is get in touch with them by the day before you wish to dine, at the latest, and discuss what you would like. They are not licensed, but you are very welcome to bring your own wine to enjoy with your meal.

Everything is prepared and cooked fresh to order. Any dietary requirements can be catered for so, if you have any allergies, just talk to them and a dish will be created especially for you. They have built up quite a reputation, locally, for being able to cater for any requirement and going out of their way to do so!

Owners, Ellen and Andy say that “it has been brought to our attention on several occasions that people with certain dietary requirements often find it difficult to eat out, but we discuss with them what they would like and make it freshly for them. We pride ourselves on the quality of our food which is all prepared and cooked on the premises, freshly to order, using local ingredients wherever possible. All we ask, is that guests pre-book their meals” Rosemount also provides the highest quality of accommodation with all rooms having been refurbished. There is a mixture of rooms available and the Superior Double En-Suite with the large spa bathroom is a must if you want a relaxing break, watching one of the beautiful sunsets over the Moray Firth.

All rooms have flat screen TVs with Freeview and free WiFi. Rosemount is open all year round, including over Christmas and Hogmanay and is open for lunch on Christmas Day. Small parties can be catered for, so if your club or organisation is looking for somewhere to try, just call and enquire.

Follow Rosemount on Facebook, where you will see many reviews from guests and pictures of several meals that have been served.

The key thing is, talk to Ellen about your requirements. It is advisable to book early to avoid disappointment as Rosemount already has many bookings, including some into 2018!

Pictures tell a thousand words...

Nairnshire Farming Society Nairn Show 2017 n for all the

The Nairnshire Farming Society is holding its 219th Annual Show on Saturday the 29th of July at Kinnudie Farm Auldearn.

Nairn Show will have something for everyone with an excellent food fair, quality trade stands, a full and varied programme of afternoon entertainment and an excellent display of livestock in the cattle, sheep and horse sections. This year’s show is shaping up to be a very attractive and fun-filled day for all the family and we are hoping for a good crowd.

Car parking is to be free this year whilst admission charges are set at £10 per Adult, £5 per concession (Age 65+), £5 per school child (5-18) and pre-school children will have free admission. Our charges are set at a level to cover the substantial set up costs associated with the show and also to enable the society to make donations to local clubs and charities.

Visitors will also be treated to a varied line up of trade stands both on the field and under canvas in the Food and Craft Fairs which will offer all kinds of merchandise including local produce and fancy goods as well as the very latest agricultural machinery. The Food Fair will again include cookery demonstrations throughout the day by various providers in a dedicated kitchen area.

There will also be display of vintage tractors and

Fu

Family!

machinery, a range of catering facilities, including the return of a public catering marquee and a licensed bar.

As ever the marquee competitions will be highy competitive and no doubt will produce a wonderful display of horticulture, wine, honey, baking, produce and handicrafts.

Main Ring entertainment will include Nairn and District Pipe Band, a Vintage Tractor Parade, Horse and Carriage Display, Livestock Parades, Children’s races and Show Jumping.

Scotty’s Circus Workshop will be in attendance providing entertainment for our younger visitors. Horse Show Jumping will also take place in a separate arena throughout the day. An educational stand from Auldmill Alpacas will provide information about these animals.

The Nairn Show website, www.nairnshow.org.uk, will be updated regularly between now and show day to give the most up to date information regarding the show.

The day will be rounded off with a Marquee Dance in the Showfield from 9pm to 1am with dancing to music by EZRA. Admission is open to persons aged 16 and over with a wristband scheme and requirement for ID in place.

Words by the Wayside

Reader, Jesus Christ died for the sin of the world, but only Christians can say “Christ died for OUR sins”. Your sins are personal, your separation from God is personal, your repentance towards God through The Lord Jesus Christ must be personal. You need a personal living Saviour and God’s Son, Jesus Christ, is the only living Saviour and He is the only way. If you will not receive God’s Goodness and Salvation found in Christ alone, then you must have God’s severity for all eternity in rejecting Him.

Entertainment

THE DROUTHY COBBLER

On the 2nd July, the 10ft Tall Theatre company bring a play by Oliver Emanuel to Elgin. Videotape is a story about a couple, one half of which has decided the time has come to leave. Set in Aberdeen and combining live action with video design, Videotape explores the lengths we go to for those we love.

Music fans are in for a treat, with four excellent bands to look forward to. On the 7th, one of Scotland’s most popular folk bands, North Sea Gas, will be showcasing their talents. Having released 19 albums and toured all over the world, North Sea Gas are definitely not to be missed.

The Routes Quartet will be performing on the 9th. Blending together the musical traditions of folk and classical, they manage to impart a new twist on traditional folk songs as well as writing their own original compositions. Featuring a blend of Scottish, Irish and English music, The Routes Quartet are ones to watch for the future.

The 22nd has Martha Ffion performing her blend of folk, indie and pop. Now performing with a full band, Martha is now performing with a punchier edge but still wears her earlier influences on her sleeve including 60s icons like The Beatles, the Shangri-Las and Nancy Sinatra.

Alistair McCulloch returns on the 23rd with ‘The Alistair McCulloch Trio’. Their annual Scottish tour has become a firm fixture on the folk calendar. Featuring Alistair on fiddle as well as Marc Duff (Capercaillie) and Aaron Jones (Old Blind Dogs), they have gained a reputation for dynamic concerts.

As well as their usual Drouthy Cobbler Comedy Club on the 26th, they also have a sold out show by Scottish comedy legend Fred Macaulay on the 14th. Fred’s brand of humour mixes cheek, sarcasm and satire and and is the perfect remedy for a world filled with Trump, Brexit and Indyref 2.

Tickets for all of these events are available at The Drouthy Cobbler and at www.thedrouthycobbler.co.uk Please be aware that while live comedy can often be hilarious, it is also highly subjective and some material might not be to your tastes!

UK FRANCHISE OF THE YEAR RUNNER UP

2013

Course Grasses in the Lawn !

I am prompted to mention this now as this spring saw an emergence of course grasses in many lawns, more so than usual. What are course grasses ? They are “wild” grasses, as opposed to “lawn” grasses, typically pale in colour, a thicker, course looking leaf, and often seem to grow in clumps in the lawn. They are seeded by other course grasses already in the lawn, or can be blown in from neighbouring land, or even deposited in bird droppings.

a spring rake prior to mowing, you will lift the long stems, which can then be mown off before they produce seed.

There is a good factsheet provided by the Royal Horticultural Society. If you search for www.rhs/coursegrasses, it should take you straight there.

They are not weeds, so a lawn weedkiller wont clear them. If there are just a few clumps, you can dig out a square of turf (like a carpet tile) and put it in the bin. You can replace with a patch of turf, or seed with lawn grass. If there is a major infestation, that’s not realistic, and you might just have to get used to it, unless you are prepared to replace the lawn with a new one.

They were prevalent this spring as lawn grasses were slow to start growing, because April and May saw drought conditions. Course grasses tend to tolerate and keep growing in these conditions, whereas lawn grasses don’t, so the wild stuff seems to dominate, even if only for a short spell until the main grass gets going.

Coffee & walnut swiss roll (gluten free) A real indulgence this month - one of my all time favourites an “anytime snack” with a cup of tea or coffee. Enjoy!!

Ingredients: A little icing sugar 100g caster sugar ¼ tsp salt 4 eggs-separated seeds of 1 vanilla pod 100g very finely grated (& peeled) sweet potato 50g rice flour 20g finely ground walnuts 1tsp baking powder Method: Preheat the oven to 180, line a swiss roll tin with baking paper and dust with icing sugar to help prevent the swiss roll sticking.

Whisk the egg whites with 2 tbsps of the measured caster sugar until stiff.

Whisk the egg yolks, vanilla and remaining sugar until very pale and leaves a trail when the whisk is removed. Add the sweet potato and mix well.

Using a spatula add about a third of the egg whites to the egg yolk mixture and beat.

In stages, add the remaining egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture, being very careful not to knock any of the air out. The best technique is a figure of 8 motion being sure to get the sides and bottom of the mixing bowl.

Add the rice flour, baking powder and ground almonds and fold in until incorporated.

Pour this mixture into the prepared tin and bake for about 15 minutes, then onto a new piece of baking parchment sprinkle some caster sugar and upturn the sponge onto this. gently peel the baking parchment off the sponge, and carefully start to loosely roll up the sponge and allow it to cool.

175g soft butter 350g icing sugar sifted 2tbsp instant coffee dissolved in a little hot water While the sponge is cooling, beat together the above 3 ingredients, unroll and fill the sponge, re-roll and put the kettle on to enjoy properly!!
