Great Weekend

Gosh this 'ere festival is just one big whirl, I was confined to barracks yesterday , Alan was allowed out "to play" so I sat at home and sulked.


Apologies to all for no posts on crafting for a while, since it's the Summer Hols I really haven't had the chance to do anything so I hope to get back to it once Alex is back to school.


On Saturday we met some friends and went to see Craig Hill in the Gilded Balloon. We also hooked up with Craig's cousin and her hubby. It was such a fab gig, he is hilarious. We got to have a beer and a burger with him afterwards and he is such a lovely guy.


After that we had tickets to go and see "Andrew Maxwell's Full Mooners" this was a HOOT, we climbed up 100 steps to the top of Calton Hill to a big top to see lots of acts including, Andrew Maxwell, Ed Byrne, Jason Byrne, Glenn Wool and Carl Donnelly. OHHHH it was good, apart from the blinking climb.
Yesterday Carolines Ma and Pa came for a cuppa, her Pa was the piper at our wedding, almost 10 years ago. He brought his pipes and played in the garden for us, what a treat!
Right I am off to do some more "back to school" shopping, Ocean Terminal here we come.
