Friday is was time to head to Scotland 315 miles and nearly 6 hours on the SatNav, dire predictions of rain all the way, yellow alerts posted on the motorways, not looking forward to driving, but low and behold, forecast totally wrong where we were and only one slight shower 5 miles from the destination.

All good great welcome from Malcolm, Marina, Josh, Samantha, the twins Emily and Olivia……..

Family gathering tomorrow and I might take some pictures…..!
