month, I tempted fate The Editor Last by suggesting that Summer might have arrived. Well - on the day I am writing this, temperatures in Kinloss have reached 27 degrees! Warmer than Barcelona I am told.

I am sure that these temperatures will not hold but maybe - let us hope - it is a sign of a warmer than average Summer Season.

A Poem (1st verse) by John Clare: Now swarthy Summer, by rude health embrowned, Precedence takes of rosy fingered Spring; And laughing Joy, with wild flowers prank’d, and crown’d, A wild and giddy thing, And Health robust, from every care unbound, Come on the zephyr’s wing, And cheer the toiling clown.

PASTORAL LETTER & CHURCH MEETINGS It’s a new world On 7th April this year the death was announced of the final native resident of Hirta in the archipelago of St. Kilda. Rachel Johnson was only eight years old when the last remaining islanders left for the mainland in 1930.

Life had become increasingly difficult for a shrinking population, struggling to provide for themselves and their families in the harshest of environments. With their departure a particular kind of life ended too.

Rachel Johnson as a young girl could remember a rope being tied around her body as she was lowered over a cliff edge to capture birds’ eggs.

Health and safety just wasn’t an issue in those days. The people needed to eat and collecting eggs was just the perfect job for a wee light lass.

Norman Gillies, who was five years old when he left Hirta recalled seeing his first tree when he arrived on the mainland. It’s difficult to imagine the feelings of disorientation that the islanders must have felt. Maurice O’Sullivan who left the Great Blasket Island off the west Kerry coast in the 1920s described in his book, Twenty Years A-Growing, how bewildered he was when faced with a door handle on the train at Dingle station. Doors

just didn’t have handles on the Great Blasket! We are charmed by stories like that but for those experiencing this new world it could all be a bit overwhelming.

For the Christian there should be a similar challenge in life. When the resurrected Jesus appeared to his disciples they had seen nothing like him ever before. Jesus was uniquely part of a new world walking about in the old and we can detect how surreal it all was for the disciples as we read their accounts today. Mary Magdalene, in fact, didn’t recognise him at all; she thought he was the gardener. Thomas refused to believe until he could see him for himself.

Peter might have wished he would disappear after having let him down so badly. And so it goes on for all the disciples and for ourselves as we wrestle with the implications of God’s extravagant love for this world in making it new again through the one man, Jesus.

Here is the Christian hope in all its life affirming, new world power. God has come to us in Christ. The unrecognised ‘gardener’ is now tending a new Eden which will fully open before us. Let’s look forward to this new world and live its way in the present while resisting the temptation to turn back to the old.

The temptation is to turn back and look to the old: to live as if the resurrection was an isolated incident with no repercussions. We can try and cling on to the things we love now and blindly hope that they will not fade away or be lost. However, the

evident passing of all things including our own hopes and ultimately our own lives will not allow this. Instead, we are left with the writings of an old man on an island far from St. Kilda who recorded his astonishing new world vision: “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth… And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, ‘See, the home of God is among mortals.

He will dwell with them… he will wipe every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; mourning and crying and pain will be no more, for the first things have passed away.”

PARLIAMENT BLOG & TIDE TIMES Duke of Edinburgh’s Award I recently had the great pleasure of welcoming home Duke of Edinburgh participants after two days of activities in celebration of the origins of the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, which originated from an idea that started at Gordonstoun right here in Moray.

The ‘Moray Badge’ was introduced by the founder of Gordonstoun and participants came from around Moray, including the Duke of Edinburgh himself while he attended Gordonstoun. The Duke of Edinburgh then subsequently sponsored the expansion of the scheme with it becoming the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award! Moray can be very proud of being the origin of what is now a highly successful and internationally recognised scheme. The day involved DofE participants from right across Moray and it was fantastic to see so many gaining the broad range of experiences that the Award Scheme offers and which will serve them well for the future.

This is a beautiful place and we have long enjoyed a well-deserved reputation as a world class tourist destination but, for good or bad, the days when mystery and undiscovered gems would draw people to explore the area with limited information are long gone. These days visitors have a wealth of choice and, powered by the Internet, have access to thousands of possibilities. They want to know, in advance, what they can do and, most importantly want to get here with the minimum of fuss. That's why, after nearly 19 years absence I'm delighted that British Airways are re-establishing a daily link between Inverness and Heathrow. Around 90% of international visitors to Scotland arrive by air, over a third through Heathrow, so the potential of the link is very good news for tourism and business.

By the time you read this flights will have already commenced and more visitors will be experiencing our unique attractions as a result.

INNES HOUSE

Weddings and Corporate Entertainment A Unique place for any Occasion It is difficult to imagine a more romantic setting for your wedding than a 17th century house set in a sheltered walled garden. However, Innes is not just a stunning venue which you and your guests will never forget, but also offers a wholly flexible programme to enable you to plan your day exactly as you would like.

Every wedding is unique and tailor-made for each couple. You may hold the ceremony here in the garden or in one of the two beautiful reception rooms. After the service your guests can wander around the gardens whilst you have your photographs taken in these tranquil, romantic surroundings.

The reception and dinner may be held in the East Dining Room or larger parties can be held in our marquee extension which covers a walled garden complete with a summer house for the bar and a fountain around which the tables are set. After dinner you may enjoy dancing or other entertainment and then drive away down the tree lined avenue and look back on a magnificent floodlit house.

Alternatively, you and some of your guests may stay the night in one of our splendidly appointed bedrooms and leave after a leisurely breakfast the next morning.

Offer extended!

Any couple booking their wedding within six months of their wedding date, will be offered complimentary wedding night accommodation along with a 'Champagne Toast' upgrade of their chosen drinks package

Moray Walking Festival 16-26 June 2016 Explore Moray this Midsummer - from Thursday 16 to Sunday 26 June 2016, the newly named Moray Walking & Outdoor Festival has activities for all walks of life! Over 10 days you can see Moray from a different view; from the top of a hill at midnight, jumping off a cliff, from an open canoe, painting a coastline or tasting tea made from your wild view!

This year our guest speaker is Alan Rowan, the Midnight Mountaineer. When Alan Rowan finished his shifts as a sub-editor at a national newspaper, he knew he was too jacked up on deadline adrenaline to attempt sleep. He was starting to worry if he would ever complete his ambition to reach the summit of every Munro . He decided upon a single solution to both problems.

He would begin his ascents in the middle of the night! You can also join Alan on a Midnight walk up Ben Rinnes with former RAF mountain rescue team leader David “Heavy� Whalley.

Chef’s Confidential

No-bake White Chocolate Velvet Pie Oreo Pie Crust Recipe: Ingredients: 24 Oreos 57g melted unsalted butter Preparation: In a medium-sized bowl or a food processor, add the Oreos and blend until they are the texture of coarse meal or crumbs. Add the melted butter and blend until well combined. Press mixture into a 9 or 10-inch deep-dish pie pan onto the bottom and up the sides evenly. Try to make the crust about 1 cm evenly all around.

Refrigerate the crust for at least an hour before you add the filling. This will help prevent crumbling when you want to serve it.

White Chocolate Velvet Pie Recipe: Ingredients: 250g white chocolate chips 250g cream cheese, room temperature 1 tsp vanilla extract 250ml heavy whipping cream Instructions: In a microwave safe dish, place white chocolate chips. Heat on high in microwave for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and stir until chips are completely melted, heating an additional 15 seconds if needed. Let cool to room temperature.

In a large bowl, beat whipping cream with hand mixer on medium speed until peaks form and hold shape, being careful not to over beat. Set aside.

Combine melted white chocolate chips, cream cheese and vanilla extract until smooth. Fold in whipped cream. Once fully incorporated, spoon mixture into Oreo crust.

Refrigerate 2-3 hours before serving.

Carer Support Service (Moray) Carers Week - 6-12 June 2016 Carers Week is an annual, national campaign to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges that Carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities.

Individuals and organisations come together to organise activities and events throughout the UK, drawing attention to just how important caring is.

Carer Cafes This year, Carers Week 6-12 June is focusing on Building Carer Friendly Communities, with a wide range of events and activities taking place. In Moray, Quarriers Carer Support Service is taking carer support out into our communities, and joining with local cafe owners to provide four Carer Cafes, where you can meet other Carers for tea, coffee and chat: Monday 6 June 10am - 12noon at Le Café Coull, 25 West Church Street, Buckie, AB56 1BN Tuesday 7 June 2-4pm at Harbour Lights, 5 Pitgaveny Quay, Lossiemouth Marina, Lossiemouth, IV31 6TW Wednesday 8 June 6.30-8pm at the Harvest Centre, 10 Greyfriars Street, Elgin, IV30 1LF At this session, we particularly want to meet carers who are less able to

This cafe will also include taster pamper sessions.

Friday 10 June 10am - 12noon at Mackenzie and Cruickshank Home and Garden Centre, Greshop Road, Forres, IV36 2GW If you provide unpaid care to a family member or friend who depends upon you because of physical or mental illness, frailty, disability or substance use, we’d love to see you there. If you know someone else in this situation, please recommend our cafes or bring them along for a chat over tea and coffee. We'll have a range of information available, and our support workers will be on hand to answer your questions.

Breakfast meeting and Carer celebration On Thursday 9 June, Quarriers and the Moray Carer Service Provider Network are hosting a breakfast meeting for professionals, at the Alexander Graham Bell Community Hub at Moray College, where we’ll be highlighting the experiences and challenges of Carers.

eview R Kristoffs ‘

Kristoff's is located in Tollbooth Street, Forres, very handy for the mother and daughter evening I had planned as a reward for my teenage daughter having revised hard during the Easter Break.

On our arrival we were shown to a booth, given our menus and the Specials on offer were run through by the friendly waitress. Whilst we looked at the Menu, our Drinks order was taken and brought promptly, along with a jug of fresh water.

For Starters I had a Prawn, Crayfish and Smoked Salmon cocktail with a Marie-Rose sauce, served with a crispy roll and my daughter had a Beef Fillet medallion on French toast, topped with a garlic mushroom and Gruyere cheese. In a word – delicious.

Given the variety of main courses, it was a difficult choice for me, but I finally settled on the Hungarian Style Potato Rosti with Beef Goulash, topped with peppers, cheddar cheese and sour cream.

The beef simply melted in your mouth and the flavours were wonderful. A vegetarian option is available – a nice touch. As you might expect from a teenager, the prospect of building your own burger was too tempting and so a platter bearing a brioche bun filled with a large burger, cheddar cheese and chorizo was brought to the table, accompanied by rustic chips, salad and tomato chutney. Enough said.

Finally the desserts – I plumped for Sticky Toffee pudding and custard, with my daughter opting for Stew'n'Drew's ice cream served on toasted banana bread with fresh fruit and Chantilly cream. Gorgeous!

Kristoff himself served up the main courses to all the tables, giving him the opportunity to check that all was to everyone's satisfaction.

The two waitresses coped well with a busy restaurant, with no-one being left to wait and tables were cleared efficiently. The restaurant is warm and cosy, the staff friendly and the food of a very high standard.

I highly recommend Kristoff's and will be heading back as soon as I can find an excuse, that's if I need one.
