Over the past few weeks we have had to sort out a few prescriptions for our patients, this has led to a few discussions with pharmacies in the area. We are pleased to report that in these stressful times that most of the pharmacists we have spoken to have been absolutely lovely, however we would especially like to mention the Great Glen Pharmacy at Drumnadrochit who consistently go above and beyond to help us.

It has to be said that even though Ionagh is a bit of a dragon 🐉 , she is exceptionally kind and to receive a wee present like this definitely made everybodies day! It is wee things like this that makes us realise we will get through this weird time.
Keely was also up to her old tricks again today as she found a wee I’ll-looking hedgehog 🦔 in her garden. “Chunk” was taken by the SSPCA to be

It is really noticeable in and around the highlands how quite everywhere is, especially as this time of the year we are normally surrounded by tourists and campervans.
