Emma and Auntie Karen

A busy day of organising. I drove Leia up to Fife, where her breeder is looking after her for the weekend. Then back to Edinburgh to collect the family for the journey south to Centerparcs. We got everything into the Jaguar, then went down the Moffat road. It's much more lightly trafficked than the Biggar road, and although it's a more technical drive, it's faster and less frustrating. We had a good run, and it was nice to flex the car a little outside of its usual city haunts.

We collected Bill and arrived at the park at around half past three. Karen, Linda and Tommy arrived much later, after a hellish journey.

Here Emma cuddles Karen, and tries on Karen's glasses.

A great night in the Lakeside Inn then back at the lodge. Several members of the party now (next morning) slightly broken though...
