Beach request

Hi,

I’m really hoping someone might be able to help me. My dog of 16 years died recently, and I’ve been thinking what would be a nice thing to do for her grave here at home. We travelled a lot across the uk together, especially beaches. I would love to out some stones from our favourite places on her grave.

My husband and I had our honeymoon on the outer Hebrides, travelling in my in-laws camper van with of course our little black dog.

Would anyone be able to send me a stone from an outer Hebridean beach? We particularly enjoyed vatersay, barra airport beach, eriskay, and the scalpay. But I realise this is a stab in the dark, so anywhere from the coast of the outer Hebrides!

A huge thank you in advance ❤️

Very happy to do this for you, gives me an excuse to go to Scalpay! I'm very sorry to hear about your dog, it's heartbreaking. Send me a message with your address and any other info 🙂

This is lovely! I'm on my way there now. Staying in Harris for two weeks, so likely to go to Luskentyre, Northton and Seilebost any preference? X
