Diary of an Edinburgher

Rufus gets excited!

Gym ✔️
And half an hour on the bike.

Rufus's last day with us. We decided to go up the hill, Rufus and I could visit Uncle A, while JR and Archie walked home. But Uncle A was busy, so we all went up the hill and came home together. On the way there, Rufus on my knee, Archie at my feet, but Archie decided to push his way on to my lap as well. He loves looking out as we go up the hill. Poor Rufus was squashed, but didn’t complain (Extra 1).

And what a beautiful day it was up the hill! The gorse was bright yellow and stunning! (Extra 2). Wee Rufus kept up, bless him, on those wee legs, though I did carry him down a bit to stop him following Archie down the long way.

Rufus's mum arrived mid afternoon. He was very excited. So was she! Christine and Lesley arrived bearing gifts, and it was great to be able to sit out the back in the warm sunshine. It was G&T time!

Later, we all went down to the local restaurant for a meal, Christine's shout. Rufus then went off happily to his own house without a backward glance... bye, Ruf!
