The beautiful weather is back and I enjoyed sitting outside on the patio to have my leisurely breakfast in the morning sunshine. I did some packing ready for the music trip then Jamie arrived home on a flying visit and, with David, we took Grandma out for lunch. We went to Charlie Rocks on Byres Road, partly because we like the food and atmosphere and partly because of its proximity to the Botanic Gardens. We had a lovely lunch and chat, the staff are very friendly and helpful. Then we walked along to the Botanic Gardens, which were full of like minded families enjoying the sunshine; walking, playing football or sitting on the grass. We strolled around happily; the trees are now in full leaf and it it a very attractive setting. The big Victorian glasshouses made me reflect that many generations of Glaswegians must have walked around here on warm days like this.
When we got home James had just arrived back from his walking weekend and we all had a cup of tea and skyped Alasdair and Cat, who are now in a place called Malacca in Malaysia. Grandma was impressed that we could speak to them and see them and enjoyed asking them questions. It felt very cosy as if we were all in the room together!
