Awoken at 10:30 by the phone – we let it go to voicemail – turned out to be my mum calling from the infirmary to say her procedure had been cancelled...

Down to Il Cibo Café in Corstorphine for brunch of a roll and coffee, then to Anne’s mum’s (whose birthday it was yesterday) where we stayed for an hour or so, recounting tails of Elk and Ice and Trains and Bears...



Then to the infirmary to see my mum who was in surprisingly good spirits despite facing the “procedure” tomorrow morning...

Back home and more mucking about with the photos, doing washing while Anne shopped...

In the evening, we watched the rocky Mountaineer DVD which brought back a few recent memories, followed by an excellent “Mock the Week” – good to be back to watching telly where you know what’s coming on when...

As Anne entered a “Coronation St” marathon, I retired upstairs to listen to music and write up diary notes and publish the first couple of days of the holiday...

Finally hit the sack around midnight but couldn’t sleep – must have still been on 4 in the afternoon Vancouver time...

Highlight of the Day : Seeing all our pics on the big computer screen...
