DEAR SPOOK, we have finally arrived in Ayr after tea and a good walk with Marion. The children had a lovely period of time catching up with Andy and Scott, the cousins, and were really happy with their visit. Meg has forgiven me for dragging her around the country. It rained plenty, but is warm. Somehow wet weather doesn't bother me here as much as in Wanaka, as I know what to do with it - you just go out. Whereas in Wanaka, you kind of wait for the sun to shine again. Not that that takes too long!
The children went to see The Fantastic Mr Fox at the cinema. Finn loved it and Meg, who had prejudged it as 'a bit odd looking' did also enjoy it, though was still slightly reserved. Is used to her animation in a certain format, methinks.
My glass of red was waiting for me on arrival. My brother is looking very fit, and you may have to put a little effort in, to keep up. He is cycling in a race with your own brother for the 2nd weekend in a row. He is very excited that I am picking you up at the airport and delivering you straight into the hands of The Boys Weekend up at Aviemore/Kingussie. He is a little concerned that you may not be at your best after 30hours flying, so I hope you will take that as a challange.
Morag - your old pal (any Morag in a storm) has come round to visit, so I must take my glass of red and sup it in the kitchen. The children are happily ensconced in front of a large screen TV.
xx
