What an easy trip. Why do I ever drive it. No 5.5 hours of hell. Left house at 8am got to station in plenty time. Got me a coffee and a granola bar.
Train was on time leaving and arriving. Beautiful day. Lovely scenery as always. And a quiet Quiet coach. Schools are back only business folk and old folks travelling. The beaches looked so inviting.
Violet didn't come in to meet me off train so I went for a wander through Princes Street gardens. I bought a hugely expensive Lucas Ice cream. The best thing for after a tonsillectomy. So thought my aunt and uncle. Only to find me munching through a bag of crisps.
I then popped into One World Shop. Got some Grumpy Mule coffee and oops lizard earrings.
No. 34 bus home. My grandads route. Which went past a sandwich shop with a huge long queue. An award winning shop in Tollcross. Might have to try it out.
I've been lazing on settee most of the afternoon. Lovely. The Sainsbury's shop arrived. No hassles. Tomorrow? Maybe gardening for mum. It's a bit weedy. Must remember to pace myself though.Lue lisää

MatkaajaI love a train journey. Crisps are definitely the best thing after a tonsillectomy, scrape any muck off your tonsil beds on their way down. We used to recommend them back in the day! Must admit not sure this was research based care!

A trip into town to meet Ciorstaidh off the bus from Dundee and take Violet to No. 6.

A little wee birthday gift of ear piercings for C while we waited for V. No success for lunch so treated them to disgusting bubble teas. And messed around taking angle photos. Who wears them best?

Then bus home. Sticky drinks and phones. For a lovely bowl of kedgeree.Lue lisää

Me n C were up early to catch train to Stonehaven where we were picked up by L. It was quite foggy in places with a thick haar going over the Forth Bridge.

I made it with good time to take them to lunch and then do my zoom meeting. They supplied me with cups of tea and snacks!

M arrived home from her horrible cafe job and we all lounged about until sis and BiL for home from work.

Delicious tea and then out the NE Open Studios opening night. Sis has made gorgeous jewellery. And got sales on the night. It's on for next 10 days! @GinHutJewellery on Instagram.

Got back tired. Wanted to crash but we ended chatting for a while. Tired out. But happy.Lue lisää

Felt not too good at first. But had a lie down. C got the guitar out and played some songs. She also sang. It was lovely. Then her dad got the quiet pipes out and played for a bit. Ahhhh. Music of my roots.

L appeared back with her beau and we packed bags and headed to the beach. St Cyrus. What a day. Warm. Sunny. Even the wind. Scotland in September. As a teenager I was kayaking in snow storms in September. Global warming!

Anyways me and L had a lovely swim. In my new swimsuit! L had bought one that was too long. Perfect. Then C and I went treasure hunting. Shells and crabs. How lovely just chilling with the kids. L is 23 and C will be 20 in a few days. Poor M had to go to work. Anyway she is driving me back on Monday so more adventures. Also I think we're off to pub later.

I also made a purchase at the open studios... A scrappy acrylic of St Cyrus beach. It's lovely.Lue lisää
