Up in the dark and writing this up..



October away..

Scenes...




Halloween - not that that means anything to us these days - other than noisy children outside this evening, who know not to bother coming to our door...


Tried and failed to get the on disc printing to work...


Met Anne down in the town to do some stuff at the bank before driving over to Loanhead, during which drive, Anne called to advise the bank seemed to have lost ratehr a substantial amount of our money...

Not happy...

To say the least...

Later, this was deemed sorted (without, as yet - Saturday as I write this - any real evidence of what on earth happened)...

Anyway, more tidying and chucking out at mum's with sister Sheila...

Some pics found...

The old back garden before mum and dad ruined it - they really had zero taste...


Aha - me, on a horse, Butlins 1975...


My dad aged 45 - twenty years younger than I am now...


Me, my mum, Pam and my Gran'ma - who accompanied us on many a holiday post the death of our Grand'pa in 1967...


Jumping forward 11 years, nephew Andrew arrived...



...held here by a fresh faced Exec Producer...


...his mum...



...and his excited Gran'ma...


The christening...





Andy, in "capable" hands at our first flat...


...and with Sister Pam...


A couple of years later, at Xmas, at Sheila's...

Tractor-tastic...





Three years after Andy, Alastair arrived...



Not sure what happened here - by the looks of it, neither is Ali...


Good one of my mum - that's the face LOL...


And a few of my mum and dad on various trips...








Best picture of my dad - some man!


...although this gives it a run for its money...


...and erm...



Hmmm...





Anyway, also sorting and recording...



Anne will have these...


Loads more paperwork brought home - the vast majority for the bin...


Salmon, potatoes and asparagus for tea - yum!


Then, to paining the CD covers for Whitby...

Red...


Yellow...


Blue...


White...


Done, and left to dry...


Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Painting...
