It has been a really lovely weekend despite continuing rainy weather. Saturday was so relaxing; a long lie, breakfast in bed, everyone chatting and studying in the back room. In the afternoon we went bowling at Springfield Quay which was good fun. We tried and failed to win a "minion" (the annoying little characters from Despicable Me) from a machine where you tried to grab one, and a wee boy in the next lane "high-fived" us all when anyone got a strike! Jamie shopped for dinner, which was hot stone and fondue, a family favourite. Grandma came round for tea too and I think that she was rather perplexed by the concept of cooking your own meat at the table! It was all very friendly and relaxed. Ally and Cat kindly cleared up afterwards (it is always very messy meal!) then we all watched the first Austin Powers film because Cat has never seen it; we had a good laugh. And today there was more studying going on and then we had browse around and a lovely coffee at the Burrell Collection; it's quite a while since I've been there and it was nice to be back. It was cosy in the café with the raining splashing in the puddles outside, and my fruit scone was delicious.
The weather could have been better, but the best thing about the weekend was all of us being together.
