But it hasn't been all work this week....I had a fun day out on Thursday with my two favourite hooligans....we took ourselves off to Alford... to the Transport Museum which is well worth a visit.
This is Big Mack....the snowplough that cleared the road from Alford to Strathdon....up over the notorious Lecht to Tomintoul....the highest village in the UK... during the 60's and 70's and was driven by Brodie and Oliver's Great Grandad....and how strange they are sitting exactly where he sat...Brodie struggling to see past the steering wheel and Oliver trying to get to grips with the ancient gear box.
then it was time to do some steam rollering......
a change of pace and time to let someone else do the driving...a trip on the Alford Valley Railway
great fun chugging along at 2 miles per hour with Brodie and Oliver waving at the golfers and all the folks just out for a stroll
It's great having a grandkiddie day out.....allows you to behave like a child again without folks thinking you have totally lost the plot. And if like me you are a big fan of the Lord of Timmie Holtzness and all his crafty goodies....you can get some fabby bargains over at Craft Obsessions ....and perhaps the mammoth clear out wasn't such a bad idea after all.....will catch up with you all tomorrow for a fabby give-away from Fantastic Ribbons.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend....hugs Kath xxx
