Day out of the norm!

Yesterday was a bit of a day out of the norm for us.  We went to TK Maxx as I wanted to see if I could find any photo albums, which I did complete with acid free paper, yey!  Whilst there, Dexter came up to me and said, "I have found the biggest shoes ever", and sure enough they were.... huge.  Big feet, must have big hands and ....of course..... they could be unisex!!!
The TK Maxx shop is next to Kentucky Fried Chicken, a place Anders and I have not eaten from in all the years we have been together and Dexter has never eaten from there at all which may come as a surprise :-)
Anyway, Anders and Dexter went in to Kentucky Fried Chicken to use the loo, and came out thinking they would like to try some of the chicken, as you do of course!  So we got some take out and ate it in the garden with Aperol and Cava, Dexter had fruit juice! The Chicken and the Corn on the Cob were great :-)  not something we would advocate having often, but then, from what I have just said, you can see we are not fast food junkies!
 

This has turned out to be a great Easter weekend as I have the best boys in the world. They made this weekend really happy for me, we have been out and about the whole time and I have not stopped, so have not developed any spools yet (and there are lots of them now) or downloaded any of the digital photos except for these from my i-phone!  So what did we do, well Dexter and I have been up in a Helicopter. We have been to a fantastic outdoor car boot sale which my Mother loved going to and got some fantastic photographs there (or think we did but won't know until we develop the film). We stumbled upon some Blue Grass music which was so much fun and some of the tunes I recognise from Brother where art thou a film I really like (shown above as did a video of them singing on my i-phone).  We have been walking on beaches, painting eggs in a lovely cafe in Gullane and then rolling them down the hill in the Botanics. These I will share with you another day once I am a bit more organised!
