Raspberry picking

We mosied down to Border Berries to pick some raspberries. En route we stopped at Smailholm Tower which was a little underwhelming. The views were fantastic, but the interior much less interesting. The girls and I got the giggles, which made Nick a little grumpy. We had fun picking fruit. Nick was quality controller and the girls - paricularly Rowan - probably ate more than they put in their wee tubs. Afterwards we scoured the area in search of ice creams and drove home feeling very satisfied with ourselves.

We ate outside in the warmth of the evening. A quickly knocked up omelette with tomato and rosemary. It was delicious. The wine went down a treat too (very unusual for me) although a second glassful resulted in a particular 'look' from Nick. He knows what can happen when I have more than one....
