Biggest Granddaughter was pleased with her cushion, examining her chosen fabrics and reminding herself why she chose them. So that was good, though it wasn't exactly a difficult sewing project
Also good: we went for a six-mile walk along the River Tweed from Tweedbank to Melrose and back yesterday, and my sore leg hardly hurt at all.
When we got home and sat down, it was very stiff for a bit and was then fairly ok.
It was beautiful weather. Melrose believes in bright bedding schemes.
We had lunch there and then crossed the river and walked back to the station. It was so lovely meeting up with our friends and having exercise in picturesque surroundings.
Princes Street Gardens were looking pretty too as we got the bus home.
Today we met up with Son and his little ones in Dundee Botanic Gardens,
where we had a very nice time. The children are (biased Granny opinion) so lovely.
After lunch we had quite a substantial walk along the river front, though the little ones on their bikes went rather faster, with athletic Son jogging along beside them.
One day we must go and visit The Discovery, which is moored there, but today we just admired it. It carried Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton on their first expedition to the Antarctic in 1901.
We did go through underneath the Dundee Victoria and Albert Museum,
which is not, to my mind, a beautiful building. It's supposed to look like a cliff.
The Unbloggables climbed this lookout tower but I stayed at the bottom. I'm not great with heights.
And my leg was fine! Seems unlikely that it's suddenly cured, but I'm hoping... .
So altogether it was a particularly lovely weekend. Hope you had one too.
