TRIP TO SCOTLAND

Well i'm back from my wee trip to bonny Scotland. we had a nightmare getting up there only took us 13 hrs. We went to the champ dog show at The Highland Centre in Edinburgh which is right next to the airport.
We did really well at the show getting a 2nd in best puppy dog and then a first in Junior so it was well worth the travelling and being totally knackered. This means that we have now qualified for Crufts dog show later in the year.
We travelled up all day Friday and then set off Saturday afternoon to come back , we had brilliant sunshine to start as we came through all the lovely rolling hills watching all the new lambs and calfs. the rivers flowing over the fields. It was great to go for the quick visit as my mum was born here and all her family come from Scotland and as we drove further down coming to Lancashire it was great to be home , this is were i first started to grow up and was born. then we travelled south to home now eventually getting in at about 11.30. 9oo miles in 2 days .
So today is a lazy day for me catching up on the e-mails and the kids, then dragging Andy out to walk the dogs and see the Queen Mary 2 docked. The lovely thing of where we live is we can see all the big liners come and go. we are only 5 mins walk from the water and can see them all from our upstairs window........
