Cairo Boy Returned

We've got him back safe and sound and he has the run of the Dower House for the next few days while we have a previously arranged break in Ballater.

It's snowing here in Edinburgh as we leave, so goodness knows what we will find up North.

Our holiday will be somewhat marred by the news that our superbly fit running and cycling friend, Jean Wainwright died yesterday from head injuries after falling from her bike in Cuba.

His Lordship and I are totally devastated.
