Lemonade.

A wise person said "if this life hands you lemons... make lemonade".

Access to Pittodrie sucks if you can't walk far.

A lovely, lovely man stopped his car and offered the son a lift over the links.

The daughter and I had a walk on the beach and a double nougat (two marshmallow wafers filled with raspberry ripple ice cream for the uninitiated) from the Inversnecky.

The waves were crashing in over the groynes in beautiful sunlight.

Aberdeen won their first game of the season 4-0.

Somebody stopped to ask us if "we" won. I told him it depended who he was supporting and then shouted "yes, 4-0!"

The fish and chips at the Bervie Chipper just outside Forfar were awesome. Fresh off the boats and batter as light as anything I have ever tasted.

I think it would be fair to say that, helped by the man who gave the son a lift, we all made lemonade. THANK YOU so very much!
