Before the ice lolly

Son number 1 and family, minus Islay dog (in Peebles, again) arrived in the middle of the night all looking quite chirpy. They were up and about early this morning and demolished the croissants, IKEA pancakes and blueberry sauce by 8.00. A second breakfast at 10.30 and a walk to the childrens play area in Pollok Park which they all actively enjoyed, especially those tea cup things which look innocuous but are actually quite racey and made my DiL temporarily quite ill.
They fell asleep in the afternoon and I read the paper and did a bit more admin and prepared supper.
The afternoon was warm enough to sit on the balcony enjoying a glass of Rioja, dinner inside, pudding on the balcony.
