So, having had to do another post I may as well carry on. Let's start with a cute picture of little Asher:
Now a couple of late photos from our Fringe visit:
These were taken as we were waiting in line for the Henning Wehn show. The next one was from the Royal Mile:
In some ways, the Wicker Man above reminded me of the first time we were in San Francisco with Lucy when the Bush Man (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Famous_Bushman) made me jump. He died in 2014 unfortunately.
It's been a busy week - took a walk up Scolty on Sunday and then we had two solid days of walking round Edinburgh on Monday/Tuesday, followed by 3 consecutive days of golf on Wednesday/Thursday/Friday. My car went in to have its MoT on Thursday but the work wasn't finished until Friday - it's getting to that stage when it's starting to cost money to keep it on the road, and it's not like I do a lot of miles in it nowadays. I now walk far more than I drive - the golf course and the village are very close, fortunately - quite a reversal from my days at work when I spent so much time in my car up and down to Fraserburgh and in and out to Bridge of Don.
Anyway, I told them I would pick up my car this morning (Saturday). I had 3 options - I could cycle in (20 miles) and pick it up, or I could catch the bus, or perhaps Jo might take me in in her car. It was a beautiful morning and I felt fine, but I decided it might be best to have a rest day after the hectic week, with more to come next week, so we opted for the latter choice.
Tomorrow morning is the Rotary Charity Golf Tournament at Banchory and then it's the Banchory Beer Festival in the afternoon. We have 4 tickets for the event close to Woodend Barn but Lizzie's working so we've got a spare one now.
As I write this, Ross is busy transporting their stuff down from his flat to ours - tonight's the night when he and Lizzie move in to Arbor Court. Our lives will never be the same again! At least until October. Jo will love to have somebody to natter away to again. I'll find a quiet corner somewhere.
Today cousin John Kelly is getting married to his partner Joanne (Sahal). We wish them well - we couldn't manage to accept their kind invitation to the wedding, but I'm sure they'll have a great time and we look forward to seeing them again at the next Family gathering - hopefully this year.
To close, I saw this article in the press recently - thought it might give our Lucy some pointers:
