My Brother

After 2.5 years, it was really lovely to see my brother busboy again!! We talk on the phone every week, but it's not the same. So nice to see him and his partner Debbie, who had driven to Largs to meet up with us and are staying in a bed and breakfast here tonight.  They came in for a wee visit to my mother-in-law Jean's and then the four of us went for a walk along the front and chatted. 

Rest of the day: we went into Paisley to visit an old friend of Jean's, who sadly is now in a care home and didn't recognise any of us. It was upsetting for Jean to see a good friend like this, and given that her other friend is in a similar state it means that precious shared memories of her younger life are less tangible. Then to Lochwinnoch, where Bb's dad was the local butcher for many years, succeeded by Jean, after he died. We had fish and chips by the loch called Castle Semple - delicious!  Then back to Largs to meet my brother and Debbie. 

Added a few extras. The sunset ones were on our walk after we'd left my brother and Debbie.
