UP EARLY to get to Doune and help get things ready for Aaron’s fifth birthday party.

Once everything’s ready we get to the venue in Dunblane in good time to get everything ready for 20-odd of his wee pals arriving at 10.30am.

The party finishes at 12.30pm and we get everything cleared up and back to Doune soon after.

There’s an ‘adults’ family get together the rest of the day. Will’s made a big pot of chilli and there’s endless food and snacks.

We have a grand day and roll up home just after 8pm.
