Another allotment day!

Took mum over to the allotment today, as Layla is on holiday I am looking after it. Got organized at the house with mum and Ruaridh in the car and off we set. First stop was to get rid of all the empty bottles and old newspapers, then put diesel into the car before heading off to the east of the city.
Pulled over at Leith Links and mum sat in the car whilst Ruaridh and moi had a walk around the links he appeared to enjoy this even run about for a while.
Then back to the car, got mum and to the allotment, the road on the street where you get to the allotment is all smashed up as they are replacing it, will take about two weeks! Everything fine at the allotment mum thought it was fantastic, picked a cucumber and a couple of courgettes also all the ripe raspberries that are tasting delicious. Lightly watered the greenhouse produce, Ruaridh had a great time running around, met a lovely lady who said we could pick some of her raspberries.
Drove back home had lunch, then mum had a sleep and I made more courgette and potato soup and got the dinner ready for tonight.
Did my blip, then to the park with the Wonder Dog before going to meet Graham off the bus. Met Ruaridh's wee Border friend Totem and they had a play, met Graham saw Fergus the tree surgeon and had a chat.
Home early dinner well for us, cauliflower and cheese sauce, new potatoes, carrots, neeps and broad beans from the allotment delicious. Dessert of the day homegrown raspberries, ice cream, maple syrup and shortbread biscuit. Enough Goodnight
