I got in to the office early enough on Friday and had a busy morning, but got through a lot, which allowed me to leave at lunchtime with a clear conscience. It was the usual weather whenever there's high pressure in the North East - the coast retaining some cloud/haar cover, but glorious weather inland. Jo and I walked along to catch the 2:35 bus back in to the city. We waited outside the Burnett - I crossed the road to get some cash while Jo took in the rays:
There was no more than a dozen or so passengers the whole way in to Aberdeen, and only two of them - Jo being one - were actual cash customers - the rest of us were Seniors using our free bus passes, with one Student as well!
We had a good time and were home at a respectable hour - more photos on http://iansaleadventures.blogspot.com/.
Saturday was another fabulous day in Deeside, and after golf in the morning, I went back to the festival to do a couple of hours' work behind the bar - and Jo came too, to get her first experience of serving punters with ale. She was a little apprehensive, but it wasn't too busy and she soon got in to her stride. Here she is in full schoolteacher mode lecturing some poor innocent customer:
In the absence of anything decent on TV last night, we went back to series 3 of the Wire on DVD - not quite as good yet as the first two series, but still interesting.
Today wasn't as nice - overcast, but calm and mild and I managed another round of golf this morning whilst Jo did her usual Sunday church/coffee thing with the girls.
Jo's been doing some work in the back garden:
Incidentally, I finished the 3rd book in the Millenium trilogy - excellent reading - all of them - highly recommended.
So, it's back to work in the morning - and the dental hygienist to face!
