Found the house!

We have seen loads of houses by now but were quite happy renting as hadn't seen a house we liked enough (and could afford) but as fate would have it I resigned from HMRC while back on holiday in Scotland - as my 3 year career break came to an end - returned to Spain - and the same week saw a house we all liked and could afford! It comes with everything that is in it and will be ours once the unexpected paperwork issues are resolved...

Drawer liners from 1975

A cute double seat

A fascinatingly bad ashtray from the 60s? 70s?

Summer holidays part 2

We were invited to a cousin's wedding hence the decision to swap some of our lovely hot Spanish summer for a cold, wet and windy Scottish one. Thankfully on the day the weather was kind and although a bit grey it wasn't too wet or cold. Ferry from South Queensferry to the old abbey on Inchcolm Island - a beautiful setting for a wedding!

P.S. Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Finn.

Went for a walk at Cramond (bloody freezing) and Adam wanted this ice-cream tub after looking at the pictures but wasn't sure if he'd like that brown bit that sticks in it! What Scottish kid doesn't know a flake when he sees one!

Out and about in Edinburgh.

A wee afternoon drive in Steven's neck of the woods.

Adam had a fantastic afternoon meeting up with 3 of his favourite friends (who are girls but not girlfriends he always tells me) from peekaboo nursery.
