Busy Day

Today turned out to be a wee bit more hectic than I had planned mainly due to the down pouring of rain we had this morning. Graham had a meeting this a.m. so I suggested that we go over to the east side together as I was going over to see Layla and Bella anyway. Had to get everything ready quickly so that we could be away as the meeting was for 1030h. Had a shower and washed my hair then breakfast before jumping in the car with The Wonder Dog and off!
Arrived at Layla's after dropping Graham off, we decided to go to the allotment by car as it was still raining hard. Stopped at Leith Links to give Ruaridh a walk-the heavens opened and we got soaked, met a man and woman searching for a key, difficult job to find it in the long grass wonder if they did! On to the allotment got cucumbers, tomatoes and raspberries delicious also courgettes and got really wet. Back to the car smelling rather damp and on to Asda to get messages. Got most of what I wanted forgot the milk!
Back to the house had a lovely lunch, then I read some stories to Bella and we played with the farmyard animals, Bella helped her Mummy make fairy cakes for Granpa's birhday! When her Grandpa came Bella did some amazing dancing and a few tipple-tales, she was very excited. Left and came home fish and chips with peas and parsley sauce for dinner--tasted delicious!
Made a Birthday cake for Graham, then roasted some tomatoes with garlic, chili, sugar S&P to be made into a sauce for use by the family.
Wrote a couple of emails then bed as it is Graham's Birthday tomorrow. Bye.
