Ailish @ Benmore

Ailish has gone away for an activities week at the Benmore Centre in Argyll. She was really looking forward to a week away from her sister!!! I hope Daddy and I weren't included in that.
Anyway it looks as though they have lots of exciting things planned.

P7 have there own blog which they will be updating every evening so we can see what they have been up to check out http://edubuzz.org/blogs/yesterp7 for latest postings

We really are lucky to live here! Took this picture early one morning as sun was rising over Traprain Law. (extinct volcano) about a mile from our house.

This is the view from our garden.

Rosi's Birthday


I had been asked for photo's of Rosi's birthday party.


She had a makeover party. Her and four friends were collected by limo and taken to the venue in Edinburgh where they met up with the rest of her friends. They were then pampered with hair and makeup and taught some dance routines to high school musical.

SCARRRYY


We love this photo of Alix don't you think she's a little bit scary

May update

Well we have had a rather busy weekend.

For some idiotic reason I agreed to organise the School fete this year which was on Saturday. Those of you living north of the border will know it was P***ing it down. AAAAAhhh. Luckily we had booked a marquee which saved the day. A grand total of £1,300.00 was raised.

Ailish had dipped her toe into the world of business at the fete. She has set up Ish.Art which was a stall selling handpainted, photo frames, Door hangers, Bookmarks,
and pencil sharpeners. She bought all the items herself and paid for her stall. She was lucky and turned a small profit on the day.

Saturday night was Eurovision night. Ailish had 3 friends for a sleepover and they all watched the Singalong version on sky interactive. It's much better fun with a bunch of 11 year olds. Although even they had cottoned on to the politics. Martin was at school with the girl who sang the Irish entry.

Rosi, was away staying with her friend Charlotte as they were appearing as dancers in the Scotty and Lulu show at the Leith Links festival. She had a great time but it was apparently very cold and wet. Scotty and Lulu are children's entertainers famous for songs such as Woopee and Pooh on my shoe!!!!

Me and Martin


Finally found a half decent photo of the two of us. This was taken at a friends party on Boxing Day. We had had one or two Sherbets
