A weekend of peace!!

Peter is away this weekend - Hurrah!!!
He's gone back to the family in Ayrshire for 5 nights. And boy was he looking forward to it!!
But the lure of the log fire, the dad who mops the kitchen floor and the grandad who has a soft top 2 seater MG sports car seems to be luring more and more of my friends!!! They keep asking how they can put their name down for respite at the place!!!!
It's a lovely place - gorgeous surroundings. We went to Largs one evening this week and came back over the road near to Dalry. Imagine, said Lou, waking up the that view every morning!! A little bit of paradise on earth. 


Odie - you would love it!!!


So Chris met us at the Station on thursday afternoon. Sara, the daughter and two of her friend were in the car. Peter met Beth last time and as Chris turned into the car park, all i could hear was "HHHAAAALLLLLLOOOOO PETER!!!!!",
It was touching that he had made an impact on them in the last visit!.


I think the plans for the evening were to go and see Harry Potter. We had a quick chat, exchanged news - mainly about our kitten and Beth told us she had a kitten as well!!


We have no plans this weekend - taking it easy!!
I tidied the freezer out yesterday - while Lilo was running around the house - quite how Kitty didn't end up in the freezer, i'm not sure!!! And the bathroom got cleaned. I HATE cleaning said room. If i had money, i'd hire someone to do it. but alas, no - so it gets done by me. 


This afternoon my friend May is coming up - we're just going to chat and catch up - it's nice out, so i'm hoping Paul will put up the table and we can sit out for a while. I did get a long lie this morning, so i can't complain.


So i'm going to the shops just now to get some goodies for us to eat this afternoon!!
Enjoy the weekend!!

  1. Oh Julie you had me day dreaming about how much I would love to be in those surrounding if even for a short while. I do hope all you want to happen this weekend does and you find the peace you are looking for.

  5. What a lovely break Julie. You certainly deserve it [and dare I say, probably needed it? :)]

    I think the thing I will miss most about our vacation were the beautiful views and the quiet.

    Is nice to be home tho'.
