I WAKE up early and find both Aaron and Freda in the bed with us! Margaret takes them downstairs for breakfast and I get myself sorted.

After breakfast we take the kids to the park on their bikes and Catriona gets back. We have a quick coffee with her then head for home.

Margaret goes for a nap and I spend some time working on stuff for next Sunday’s market beside the Balmaha visitor centre car park. Half way through he Dremel seems to gear up to it’s highest speed and the regulator stops working. Bah. That’s not good as the high speed settings aren’t much good for my needs.

I knock up red beans and rice for dinner and we have a fairly chilled evening.
