Sisters sledge

Christmas eve.

We went for a walk this morning. After a detour via the house, we carried on south past Chapelton where Neil Meldrum (the farmer) lives.

Here, Louisa (in red) is walking with her sister Nerina and her daughters Isabella and Niamh and her niece Blaise in the pushchair.

The boys are all out of shot. Fin has the sledges.

The weather has been glorious. There is a high pressure system sitting right over us. The sun has been shining by day and the full moon by night.

We are all attending Inveravon church this evening where Louisa will be singing in the choir and Finlay will be doing a reading.

Tom has just returned from Gordonstoun where he has been seeing his friend Sarah Pyper.
