Ross 28!

From http://ianrstewart.blogspot.com/

Yes - hard to believe, but Ross is 28 today. He was born in Edinburgh just after Fischer Ultrasound closed their factory in Edinburgh. Strange to think we were offered a move over to Denver, but it didn't feel right at the time and so we then moved up to Aberdeen instead. I wonder if I had taken the job and we had moved over, whether Lucy and Kelly would have remained a bit closer geographically?

What else has been happening this last week or so? Well, midweek golf is now officially over - the last night of our 23 week long midweek Quaich tournament was last Wednesday - and I won it this year - for the first time since 1995 - the oldest ever winner of the Quaich.

We also held the Terry Edmonds' Memorial at Aboyne on Friday - it's over 10 years since Terry died. The weekend that followed was our biannual trip to Boat of Garten, so the golf season is definitely winding down.

Next weekend 5 of us are going on a walking trip to the Lake District - exactly a year after our WHW weekend - and last night I made a provisional booking for the weekend in York that Jo and I have always talked about. It's at the very end of this month - hopefully before the weather turns too bad.

That's about all for now - the rest is fairly routine, although the local CAMRA branch is holding its meeting in Banchory on Saturday afternoon, so I guess I'll toddle along to that.
