Admiring the Boats

I had my hair cut shorter than usual this morning and it's now a mass of curls instead of huge waves.  I like it, but friends may walk past me in the street:-)  

My "birthday girl" friend loved her bottle of chocs and was well and truly fooled when she first saw it in the bottle bag!  We went out to lunch at her venue of choice - Arbroath Harbour, where we sat in the car and enjoyed fish and chips!  We know how to party!! 

The entertainment was provided by a family of gulls, who performed aerial acrobatics trying to retrieve the chip wrappers from a nearby rubbish bin.  When one of them succeeded, I had to chase him along the harbour side to take it off him.  They gave up in the end and turned their backs on us to watch the boats instead!

We finished my visit with coffee and birthday cake back at her house and just as I was leaving another two friends turned up, so the celebrating was set to continue:-)  She's actually very ill at the moment and is undergoing chemo, so it was good to see her enjoying herself again.  Happy Birthday L. xx
