No photo's today I'm afraid, and no excuses for not having taken any either - I'm still off on holiday and had a day free of responsibilities!
Though not entirely - I had Luca to look after while Carole went back to work. It was a rotten day in Inverurie (plus ca change?) so we headed for Banchory just after 9am in search of better weather. It was a tad brighter, and the obvious bonus was mum being around. Her retirement is nice and handy for occasions such as this.
She wasn't shocked by Luca's burn marks, having seen them after the previous session, and she and Luca had a whale of a time. Strangely I felt a little incidental. Although everyone wants to see the wee one, there's generally enough people at mum and dad's for me to chat with while he causes his usual whirlwind of chaos. However, as we were there during "skivers hours" and mums attention was obviously taken by Luca I had to suffice with watching "Star Wars The Clone Wars" on Sky Movies. Which was really crap.
We came home at lunchtime and just messed around for most of the afternoon before heading to the supermarket to buy ingredients for the meal I was going to prepare - a Brazilian Feijoada. It's a traditional Brazilian dish, eaten mainly by the underprivelaged. It's made primarily of various beans and meat, and was pretty tasty (ish). Very filling! We also watched a DVD I'd rented called "The Mist", which was terrific. Horrific ending though, not recommended for anyone with kids.
**Useless fact of the day - More people speak Portugese in Brazil than in Portugal**
