Well i hope the weather improves for ur week off!!
Friday wis gie dreich aifter the braw rest o the week. Yesterday nae ony better either. Aye, Autumn's hit fer sure. On the upside: made apple sauce wi apples frae the garden yesterday, an ah reckun it's time fer bramble pickin the day
Might have seen Artie and singing kettle last Sunday, inspirin this weeks prompt. He's nae the same wioot Cilla and Gary, but it wis still guid. Rugby the nicht, Embra vs Leinster an first game ae the seasun. Wrapped up fer it, afa chili the day! Which is guid as ah hud chili fer dinner tae, yum
Ma eldest's 6th pairty the moro, earplugs a must. Anybidy else wi excitin plans?
Singing kettle still kicking around. Wow they were a thing when I was a bairn
Barely. Last ane standin. Wis a throw back like, still daein little bunny foo foo
How can your wee girl be 6!!!!
In size 7-8 claes though! Ah'm acutely aware it'll nae be long afore Ah last physically pick her up weirdly enuff. Daein the weights tae mak sure it's nae this year
I dunno!! If she's a daddy's girl she could be there for a while yet!! How did the party go??
Amazingly well. I even managed to be useful
Hey! Mixed week for me. Had my grans funeral on tuesday so caught up with family I don't see often/ever. Short week at work and the plan was for my friend and I to go through to edinburgh then stay over, but working out too expensive so we had a day out in Glasgow instead. Home and watching The Penguin!!
Aye, funerals are weird like that. Sorry to hear about your gran. Was she a sweet old deary, or a grannie wioot a filter? My Granny took me to see The Singing Kettle up in Thurso I do mind
And Edinburgh is far too expensive to overnight in. Cheap hotels on the edge of town don't really exist, it's out in Livi or Dunfermline really. Very little east or south of it even. You can see why AirBnB is so popular for the city
My gran had opinions!! She was a matriarch. Had 5 kids but lots of fall outs within the family! She was 92 years old and fit as a fiddle. Last time she was in hospital was 58 years ago when she was having her youngest!! She had a good long life!
We didnt mind paying a bit for a hotel but almost 300 quid for less than 24 hrs seemed ridiculous!!! I don't think i'd use air bnb! Day out in Glasgow worked out fine!!
