Drymen Show

Life continues at a pace that can only be described as relentless - but the sun is shining and there are only 5 or so weeks to the school holidays so things are definitely very good indeed - teething and stomach bugs aside.

We were out and about a lot this week and enjoyed a couple of barbecues as well - i hate saying it though but it has been too hot - only because like most people in Scotland we aren't expecting it, don't have air conditioning, swimming pools or the correct clothing.

  The fine weather continued through to the weekend were we made our what now become annual visit to the Drymen Show - we knew the thunder storm was coming in the afternoon so we were so early we almost arrived as it was opening - lots of fun to be had and Sophie got to see lots of animals but the highlight was of course an ice cream....

for car seat purposes more than anything else I weighed Sophie today at the gym - 17.2 kg's was the result.

And finally - just a wee update on our veg - our onions, cucumbers, lettuce, carrots, garlic, potatoes and herbs are all making fine progress - i believe that there may also be peppers and peas in there somewhere - I am losing track - lets just see what pops up!
