The Phoenix Rises

She only comes back  once a year, but she makes her mark.
 A lunch and gin in a shed at Teviot.( Covid times). Some of the old uni gang back together  and me. She may be a bit of a boomerang  as her amazingly  talented  daughter  starts at the RCS (Royal Conservatoire Scotland) in September.  

Auld Reekie was an awful  lot quieter than the last time we were all here. Is almost felt like the 'Good ole days', when we were young and free and the tourist explosion  of the festival  hadn't  happened. It was lovely  to have that time again, even if it will probably  bounce back next year.
Too much Tapas at Cafe Andaluz and gin and Ally drove me home to sleep the awaiting MonStar and H pup. They were too tired to wag their tails, having played themselves out. Gav and Evi were late back from the Touring cars at Knockhill and were exhausted too. A wee bite to eat( Fish supper) and an hour's  kip, they left for the 2 hour drive home.
Ah to be young again.
