Tuesday in the Broch

Got back from Fraserburgh at a reasonable time last night and sat down to a lovely stew, potatoes, broccoli and peas that Jo had made. We then settled down to watch a movie - La Vie en Rose - Edith Piaf's life story - I would say it was about the best biopic I've ever seen - possibly even better than Walk the Line. Catch it if you can - it brought Jo out in a fit of the weepies!

Thinking ahead to next year - it's my 60th in March and Kelly's 30th in May. It was hinted when we were in Grants Pass that we should do something special to commemorate this - possibly hire a villa in Spain, big enough for all of us, for a week some time between our two birthdays. What do you think? The Costa or the Canaries is the easiest for us all to get to - there are usually direct flights from Aberdeen and, of course, London - and these would be the best places relatively near at hand to get some fairly guaranteed sunshine. Comments, please!

It's dry in Aberdeen this morning (Wednesday) and we're due to play golf tonight - fingers crossed! Talking about golf, Jo needs to get up to the driving range soon. She's now a fully paid up member of the golf club again, with time on her hands. If the weather had been a bit better, I'd have taken her out for a few holes some evening, but we haven't really had the chance yet. Perhaps Irene Page will give her a call some time and encourage her to get out there?
