Tim and Rob

Today's the day ........................ to capture the offspring

These are my lads - Tim on the left and Rob on the right. It's not often that we are all together because everyone is busy getting on with their own lives, but last night the four of us were under the same roof.

Rob lives up in Edinburgh and he came down to borrow his Dad's bike. He's planning to cycle to the island of Islay and spend some time making a video about the island's malt whiskies. If it's as good as the videos he made when he was going round the world last year - it'll be brilliant!

They weren't all that keen, but I persuaded them to pose for me in the garden (with Aphrodite looking on) before Rob cycled off to get the train back to Edinburgh from Oxenholme.

It could be a while before I manage to get them together in the same shot ........................
