I'm in the middle of reports right now so the words on this will be short. Let's be honest, most people only look at the photos anyway ;)
Tate Modern:
Nick and I took a get-a-away to Edinburgh, Scotland. It was my first time in Scotland. Nick went to see Kat and Danny (Danny was our best man) who have just moved there, I went there to drink Whiskey (yes, with a capital) and we both went there to get away from the stresses of home.
This is a cannon that fires at 1300 hours to let everyone know what time it is (I thought Mary Poppins was set in London?)
The pub I text Dan from.
The streets of Edinburgh.
Monkey in Edinburgh.
Nick's brother Tim got married to Sally-Ann (Sal in our family) in a beautiful area of England called the Lake District. It's almost on the Scotland boarder. The whole time we were there I just kept thinking how much my family would love it here. Grandma, Grandpa with walking poles and woolly hats. We didn't get to do much hiking (hill walking as they say here) as we had the wedding, Nick's Dad and sister (who only brought nice shoes) but we have plans to get back as soon as possible.
The wedding was beautiful and heartfelt. The first dance was attempted three times as the sound system kept failing. Eventually the dancing was aborted all together and one of the guests (Justin who composes scores for TV and movies) picked up his guitar to help the entertainment along. We all had a good ol’ fashion sing-a-long. It made the evening all the more special – especially when Nick’s dad figured out that Justin looked like Sideshow Bob off the Simpson’s.
At any rate, a good time was had by all.
