All you’re doing is trying to take a picture of the sunset and a blooming seagull just has to get in the way….

Yesterday we were mostly occupied fortifying the coastal defences of the Moray firth. For the grandsons you understand…. Hoping to see dolphins today☀️ #moray #morayfirth #sandcastles

Happy Father's Day. The most fulfilling job l've had. Turns out, being Pops is pretty cool too. To all those lucky enough to be a father, I hope you’ve enjoyed your day. If, for whatever reason, this isn’t your best day, hope you are surrounded with love and support

Yes, it’s possible I allowed a few too many bananas to over-ripen during the festive period. On the other hand, can you have too many banana loaves? (For sharing with others you understand….) #bananaloaf #homebaking

Mathematicians, a puzzle: If, yesterday, someone’s eldest daughter turned 41 and, today, their youngest grandson is 5 and, yet, that someone is only 25. a) when did that happen? b) how do the sums work? Asking for a friend 😳

Sleeper trains I have known no.4. This is Budapest to Zurich, got here via Vienna & Bucharest. Stayed in nice hotels too, to reassure you (we’re not twenty-something inter-railers, sorry!). But an epic way to travel (top bunk included). Why has no-one thought of it before…?

The parliament building. View from our lunch table today. Bit overcast on our last day but might just be an excuse to linger here over another beer 🙂 You’ve been lovely Budapest, thank you.

This moment I might just be sitting in the evening sunshine in Bucharest, since you ask. Highly recommended. Came here by train, going home the same way. Awesome (and more environmentally friendly?) way to travel 😎

So, you’re in Vienna on a warm sunny afternoon. You happen upon the Hotel Sacher café… You’re not just going to have a coffee are you? #apfelstrudel #wheninRome

A beach. Somewhere in north Wales. Humouring the grandsons, you understand… I didn’t want to do it (it’s all in the detail….) 😳⛱️
