Move Over Monty

I was up and out early to head up to St Andrew’s to meet a friend. We were meant to meet up last Saturday, but that got overtaken by TT’s illness. The train journey up was lovely until it headed inland and we hit fog. I had left a bright, cold and frosty morning and arrived at Leuchars to a damp and dreich morning. Quite a contrast.

My friend G and I had a lovely catch up as we wandered round the shops, enjoying a lovely lunch and thinking about Christmas purchases. I didn’t do well on that front though, buying only a pair of ear rings that I will probably keep for myself.

I came home to delicious home-made pizza made by the boys and then BB and I watched Strictly.

I can’t believe that I didn’t take any blips in St Andrews. How very remiss of me. BB insisted that I blip his soft toys that had been dragged downstairs. Here is Andrew the extra-large teddy bear – a gift to BB from his cousins when he was a baby, Angus the monkey (knitted for BB by grandma) and the penguin which was also knitted by grandma. The penguin doesn’t have a name – as far as I know. Penguins are all the rage at the moment thanks to the John Lewis Christmas advert, but this one has been around much longer!
