All in the Family

Anto and Stuart were over from Scotland for a few days. A few hours in Alan's with all the kids, then over to John's for some jigsaw puzzles, squirrel trumps and Tummy Ache. And some beer, of course.

All the nieces and nephews in one shot, except the lovely Jessica:

Left to right: Ross, Charlotte, Robert, Scott, Laura, Paul and Connor, the wee chief

Anto picked up two jigsaw pieces at random, and was so amazed that they fit together, she took a photo, and I took a photo of her taking a photo...


Stuart and the wee Charlotte, with Robert in front:

Scotland Day 5

Time to go home - drive to Falkirk, train to Glasgow, taxi across Glasgow, train to Prestwick, plane to Dublin, bus to Stillorgan, walk home.

Just enough time to get some more photos of the kids:

Scotland, Day 3

Late lie in to recover from the Poker night, go to see Celtic play Motherwell in Celtic Park, then go on the tear in Falkirk. I thought I was here to visit my sister!

Celtic Park:




"No, no, don't take my picture!" Don't worry, the sun will dry it.

Scotland, Day 1

A long weekend in Scotland, to visit my sister and her family, and catch a New Order gig in Glasgow.

The famous Falkirk wheel:

Dropped my pint during the gig - "Ha ha, sick for ye!"
