The relative calm before the relative storm.

So after a much longer than usual sleep, I set about a long list that was very long indeed. There was domesticity and phone calls and retail forays and web based activity and then the school pick up. Very excited boys came charging out of school; Alex normally in the back three as they get dished out was second in line and practically pushing his teacher out the way to get to me. 

We did lunch and then took the bikes for a run up to Craigleith; which has changed beyond recognition. And then back via other retail emporia in EH5. 

In and the unimaginative chicken and chips was served up; she arrived as I put the food on the table and we settled into a tabullah with lamb cooked with a Middle Eastern marinade and some charred red pepper. Extremely tasty.

She was gone all too soon and then back to wrapping, washing, tidying, laundry... 

Fuck, I even retweeted something today.
