Sexy Steamy Damon


I am currently watching Season 2 of the Vampire Diaries.

I just have to say that as much as I am a huge Damon fan - Stefan is looking particularly Delicious in this season. Damon is still the one for me!


Those eyes ... too gorgeous for words, I would kill for 5 minutes - just to stare into those eyes....

I can guarantee that if you enjoyed Season 1 - you will be in love with Season 2.

Each episode is filled with action and the chemistry between Elena, (did you know she is cast as a blonde with blue eyes in the book?) Stefan and Damon is Sizzling

I won't ruin anything for you, but I have already laughed and cried and I am only on episode 8.

Traquair Castle

Traquair Castle

The White Room

The library
Traquair Castle - 1 of the oldest inhabited castles in Scotland

It is not known when the exact foundations of the house were laid but a substantial structure must have existed by 1107 when Alexander 1 of Scotland signed a royal charter at Traquair.

Only 3 bedrooms are for guests - The Pink, Blue & White room. The rest of the house has been turned into a museum:

The Museum is a room on an upper floor which probably dates from the 14th century.

It has a fascinating collection of old letters, illuminated books, glass and objects used by the family over the years, and very rare wall paintings from circa 1530.

• Mary Queen of Scots' Rosary and Crucifix.
• An early wood and paper calculator: Napier's Bones.
• A letter signed by Mary Queen of Scots.
• Embroidery from the 1600s.
• Early printed book from 1493, Nuremburg Chronicle.
• Illuminated books.
• Jacobean Glass

Why all this information?

This is where I will be staying at the end of March! (In the White room)

A REAL CASTLE in Scotland - oh my greatness....
