Weekend Past, Weekend to come.....

Last weekend we went to visit Jessica's brother Matthew and wife Stephanie near Edinburgh. It was quite a good weekend. It was Burns Night on Saturday so we had the traditional meal of Haggis, Neeps and Tatties. MMMMMMM..... Uncle Roland was also there, as was Jess' other brother Sam, with his wife Aileen and newborn son Rory. So, what did we do for fun? Besides drink? We played Scale-Electrics!!! (Electric Cars..) As you can see from the pictures below. It was quite intense. Many grueling races. I had trouble however as I was not used to driving on the wrong side of the road.


Also, a rarity, the weather was actually nice. So we had to go explore the area. There is a nice beach nearby so we took a walk down by the bay......
Down by the Bay
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever see a bear?
Combing his hair?"
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever see a goose?
Kissing a moose?"
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever see a whale?
With a polka dot tail?"
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever see a pig?
Wearing a wig?"
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever see a cat?
Wearing a hat?"
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever see a dragon?
Pulling a wagon?"
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever see a goat?
Wearing a coat?"
Down by the bay.
Down by the bay,
Where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home,
I dare not go,
Cause if I do,
My mother will say,
"Did you ever have a time?
When you couldn't find a rhyme?"
Down by the bay.
----THE END----
