Uncle Tawfiq

Today he arrived older looking than when I last saw him but still the same lovable character! His daughter Samia and her friend Fion were also at the station to meet him. After greetings we went to the Fruitmarket Gallery and had a drink and a bun along with a chat. We then all caught the bus back to ours and had dinner. Luckily I had made enough tomato sauce so with spaghetti, a big salad and homemade bread, we had a lovely meal and carried on the chat. Tawfik left with his daughter and Fion to go to a meeting, Graham took them, then we picked him up later.
Up quite early as I was going to the allotment with the two girls, called in at Waitrose to get some messages before driving over with Ruaridh to theirs. A lovely hot sunny day, took Ruaridh for a walk around the Leith links, then we took a picnic with us and planted peas, more broad beans and some long beans, had our lunch then went back to their house as I was leaving Ruaridh there, so I could go up town to meet our visitor. Graham would pick up the car and the dog and drive home.
Good day, to bed. Goodnight.
