Family Group Hug

And so the celebrations continue. Today we entertained the Elgin family for lunch. They had set off from home at 8am to drive south for the weekend. It’s a tedious journey because after a winding road to Grantown on Spey they have to drive down on the A9 with its speed restriction of 50mph and stretches of single carriage way.
For Anna and Fin there is a teacher in service day off school on Monday and are planning to take advantage of the holiday to meet up with cousins, aunts and uncles down in the Central belt, but not forgetting a visit to the climbing wall at Ratho for light relief

The Meadows were looking resplendent in winter sunshine for the visitors and fit for the more rural lifestyle they live in Elgin.

Over the years it has been almost impossible to have the twins pose for photographs, but surprisingly enough, they agreed to a group hug before they left. His Lordship did the necessary with only a little hand shakiness.
