Aunt Margarets

After several days on the road eating out in fancy restaurants and sleeping in hotels there is nothing better than some home comforts and some home cooking. That is exactly what we got on arriving at my Aunts, this is what home comforts are all about!

Pleasanton is quaint little town, which we had a short drive too and had coffee and milkshakes, whilst sitting outside in the sun.


Here now is a couple of pictures for "Mad Margaret", my other aunt. Yes, you might have gathered by now madness runs in the family. This first picture is of "California Margaret's" local golf course. I know that Carradale is sweet, but it hasnt rained in Pleasanton since May and it is now September!

The next picture is of a little bit of Carradale alive and well and growing in California, it is a primula, smuggled through customs and planted, although it struggled at first it is now recovering. We will keep you posted.


Here is one for the family a picture of me and my aunt. Tonight we went to a "soup and salad bar", which was eat as much as you could. Samantha (part-rabbit) was in her element and munched so much salad that she did not have a desert.


Here are a couple of good family shots:


And now to start your day with a waffle, can you tell me what this bird is, and how big it is?
