Arran is a wee bit too close Beanie, but lovely. DS saw a pic of Eilean Donnan castle today so he now wants to go see it!
Hope you enjoyed your free dinner last night and that it filled DS up for a while.

May be cheaper to buy 2 scones than make a dozen. Certainly easier to work off a single scone in the gym than the half-dozen you'd "have to use up"....skint_spice wrote: »Swimming with DS - at gym so paid for already.
Made lots of things with mince.... defrosted some bargain stuff I bought to make lasagne only there was too much so now there's lasagne, bolognese and shepherd's pie! Just hope there's room in the freezer! Just waiting for lasagne to come out of the oven cos I'm starving.
