Home again

Via Edingburgh where I stayed with Bob, Mara and Fifi [ my godaughter] Kirkwood. Visited Rosslyn Chapel of Da Vinci Code fame, but its an historical and architectural gem in its own right. It has echoes of Glastonbury but there's far more substance to the link with ancient stories and mysteries.
From there I joined the 60[Birthday]/30[ wedding anniversary] celebrations for cousin John Forrest.He and Diana treated 30 relatives to a weekend of feasting and sharing at Comber Hill , Scarborough, Yorks. A Christian holiday hotel worth recommending as a Yorkshire base. Alas the sea views were misty and the moors cloud-clad, so we began to wonder whether some dark deed would envelop us- but inwardly all was sunshine.
Mum managed a walk by the canal at Tring with me when I popped in for my final stop-over. We heard a cuckoo!
So now I've cut the lawn, opened the post and posted this piece of news on the hottest day of the year.
