A view across a field of rough grasses towards an old building behind a picket fence. The fence appears to run in front of three arched roofs, as the majority of the old stone buildings is below ground level. There is a door into the building, below the fence, which looks like we would be entering a cave. This is the old ice house at Tugnet on the mouth of the River Spey. Ice would have been kept here for the salmon fished from the river and sea. Its mostly underground to helped the temperature down.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Saturday. A slightly moist Saturday at that. Have you had your first proper rain in weeks yet?
Today is looking like a chores day. Shopping and the like, fun. For certain values of "fun". Anyway, have a great Saturday whatever you are doing, or have to do, have fun, have laughs, have a gin if you want, but take care.
Today's photo is the old ice houses at Tugnet, now the Scottish Dolphin Centre at Spey Bay, operated by Whale and Dolphin Conservation.
