A color-pencil impression of the giant rhamphorhynchine pterosaur Dearc sgiathanach, which hails from the Bathonian-aged Lealt Shale Formation of Scotland, for St. Andrew’s Day. It had a 3-meter-long wingspan and was probably the single largest pterosaur of the Middle Jurassic, around 168-165 million years ago.

Blackfriars Chapel, St Andrews.
A second visit in as many weeks having not got round it all a couple of weeks ago.
This seemingly out of place structure is all that remains of a chapel of the Dominican Friars priory that stood here, there are no clues at all to tell that there was once a extensive complex of buildings.
The Priory was destroyed by the zeal of John Knox and his Protestant reformers in 1559.
There's not much left to see of the Gothic structure other than the shell you see.

"Crazy for this girl " (Chapter 1)
Introduction
Tumblr media
September 2001.
“Wouldn't you sign this picture for me? Please, I will keep it with myself forever! It will be my favourite item in the room! Yes, I know you are not signing autographs, but you can make an exception for me, right?”
“Look here! It’s my new camera, and I want yours to be the first picture there!”
All these voices full of excitement were ringing in his head yet long after he went to his room. Prince William tried to attend as many seminars and lectures as he could, especially that it was the very beginning of his studies, but the unhealthy interest he had been getting from the young women in the corridor every day was scaring him. He thought that the University of St Andrews in Scotland would be the best possible choice even with the assumption that lots of people would want to talk with him or take a picture, so he tried to get used to it. However, what he'd been experiencing for the past few days made him feel unsettled and exceeded his worst expectations.
He finally sat down on the bed and tried to rest after a day with two lectures and that recent stressful situation. After a while, he decided to take a look through notes he made throughout the day, on one of the pages was written “Bring to the classes in two days”, followed by a title of the book all the students were supposed to have. The prince cursed at the thought of going out of his room and meeting a group of excited or rather overly-excited and hysterical girls once more that day. However, he knew that many other students always borrowed books as soon as possible. Due to that unspoken rule, he had already lost a chance to get one of the important papers before class in the previous week. As a consequence, at that moment, he was determined to completely ignore all the people waiting and get through to the library.
*
“I do not understand all that fuss you are creating here for days” a brunette thought as she passed by some of her female friends who were still enthusiastically talking about the Prince of Wales’ son. She did not express her thoughts out loud, though, as she was in the minority of people thinking that William's arrival at the university was a ‘normal’ thing and not something to gush about constantly.
*
After asking about the book, William was left in disappointment again. The last copy was taken away by someone else just fifteen minutes earlier. After hearing the words “You can ask her”, William assumed that yet another forced and weird conversation was awaiting him.
“Miss Middleton. Her name is on that list given out to all the students on the first day, am I right?” A person working in the library said and rolled his eyes a little. Although he knew that a prince stood in front of him, he still felt an annoyance over first-year students' awkwardness and confusion about every simple rule.
“Yes, of course” William cleared throat moments later “We've simply had no chance to talk yet”. This time, he was the one to not receive a reply and left the library in the following seconds.

Went to the most beautiful wedding last weekend, our best friends tied the knot (literally, as in Scottish tradition) in an old byre facing out onto the sea. They told me each couple bring a candle and leave it there, and that is the reason there are all these candles burning at different levels. Still thinking about it
