Sunday. Up. Coffee...


I am not listening to these. I may spend too much time not listening to them. But, you know, it’s a library not a chore…





Writing up this diary (I was 10 days behind at this point - right now, I am writing this particular entry a week from here) while listening back to yesterday’s podcast and not enjoying the sibilance on the first track...


No doubt other errors would annoy too...


Oh well...

Onwards....


Out and to the shops and an early visit to my mum's, along with her carer - necessary as, this afternoon, a family lunch at Tynecastle, our Xmas gift from Mary...


All but nephew Craig and soon to be step nephew in law Blair were in attendance...

They were at Hampden - Blair hoping Hibs could overcome Celtic in the League Cup Final (they lost 2-1 after going ahead), while Craig was reporting on it...

Great to see everyone again...

Excellent fishcake to start...


Spicy cauliflower for Mary...


Xmas was being enjoyed...



I ought to have ordered the fish and chips but took the beef option...


Unpictured Chocolate Tart rounded things off...

Mary enjoyed a celebratory espresso martini...


A long leisurely afternoon, followed by a short walk...


...and a life home from Kitty following her recent driving test pass...


Back home, our second top notch French Film of the week (after the excellent "Stuck Together" aka "Huit Rue de l'Humanite" from last night or the night before) was "Spoiled Brats" (aka "Pourris gâtés")...


...followed by bed...

Weekend over once again...

Highlight of the Day : Family lunch...
