Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I’m a bit late with my greetings - I did start writing this on Christmas Eve, but as I was visiting my mum I was on dial up and it was taking too long to post.
Here Santa is taking some time out of his busy Christmas Even schedule to feed the fish and sharks at Deep Sea World in North Queensferry - great visit to stop my nephews and niece becoming too over excited whilst I was baby sitting. Visiting my nephews and niece was also an excuse to visit the MacRobert Centre twice in one day. They do a kind of pantomime especially for the under 5s and 2 year old Ellis loved “The Littlest Christmas Tree”, later that evening the two boys enjoyed Cinderella - one of the funniest things I’ve seen for a long time - obviously MacRobert pantomimes are to be recommended! Mum and I enjoyed Christmas lunch at Stirling Castle on the Sunday - great meal, worth watching out for next year.
After Christmas I did another visit so Ellis “could see the animals” visiting the Seven Sisters Zoo at West Calder - lots of lemurs, meerkats, prairie dogs, tamarins and some very friendly parrots as well as a great reptile section - well worth a visit.
I came back to Tobermory for New Year - forgot to take my camera so I have no photos of fireworks over the bay, but they were spectactular as always. Trying not to think about school at the moment, so will save my school resolutions for later in the week!
