Andy's, Mary's an Nellie's

Winds have been blowing all day, and the rain poured down all morning.  By lunchtime, the showers cleared and a sunny afternoon was had.  More showers this evening. 

I was meant to be working in the museum office today, but since I've been away, my pc has locked me out!  So it's been a day on the museum desk.  I was a steady morning with the rain, and continued into a steady afternoon.  After work, I managed a decent walk with Sammy around Scalloway, but the rain has out us off for more just now.  Off to work in the pub later. 

I popped down to see mam at lunchtime, and grab a bite to eat too.  She was doing good, but I couldn't stay too long.  As I was leaving, it was a quick snap.  These three houses have played parts in my life.  Andy's on the left background is where I used to visit as a bairn, and watch old WWII movies with Andy and mam also did home help for him.  Mary's in the centre has never been occupied in my life, and always was like a spooky haunted house.  We spent hours visiting Nellie's.  She used to fill us up with sweets and treats and cared for us as bairns.  And then I lived here for a couple of years.  Andy Adamson died when I was about 20, an old man with disabilities from birth, and Nellie was an old lady all my childhood, think she was about 90 when she passed away when I was about 12.  Taken at Aith, Cunningsburgh.
