Burns Night

TT was off to work very early, that left me the stress of getting BB out the door and dropped off at breakfast club so that I could get to the station in time.  I made it, but only because of constant nagging.  Work was busy again, but I forced myself to get out at lunchtime for a wee wander, as I hadn’t moved from my desk all morning and needed to clear my head.

BB has also  had a busy day.  They had a Burn’s Supper at school this afternoon.  He and a friend were giving the toast to the lassies.  He brought their speech home and read it out to us tonight  - it was very good, making mention of the girls at school, but also the female teachers!  He also recited a Burns poem – Address to the Toothache!  This evening he had football training, and was still full of beans when he came home.  I sometimes wonder where he gets his energy from.

This is the Burns Monument in Edinburgh – taken from Canongate Kirkyard when I popped out for my wander at lunchtime.
