bus stop in the damp.

Off out without husband or son today for some me time. Failed jeans shopping, failed earring shopping, successful shoe shopping and a brand new hair cut.

Met Dexter and Sam up by Lauriston after lunch for Dex's dressings appointment. He was seen by everyone in the hospital it seems! General consensus is that his body and legs are looking great but his face is miles worse. Annoyingly, a 2 weeks course of antibiotics has now been prescribed. 4 times a day on an empty stomach. Easier said than done!

Anyway, headed off to the Bat after picking up his medicine from Sick Kids. Barmaid, Holly, came in with her little 10 day old baby, Ronan. Dexter was very excited to see another baby and jumped up and down the whole time they were sat next to us!

Dexter was babysat by his granny in the evening while Sam and I headed to the Caley Sample Room for their Alechemy tap takeover and launch of their own brewed beer - 40 Yard Screamer. 40 Yard Screamer being a tribute to the out of nowhere goal against the Hibs scored by Alim Ozturk. He was there pouring pints! And we missed him by ten minutes! Gutted.
Still, a few hours out the house with good chat and good beer. Not all bad.


The sad sad news about Philip Hughes has been on my mind today.
