Last week my Auntie Catriona and Uncle Alan spent a week in Thurso with my mum and dad - the first time they have been to visit for about 13 years!! (Talk about naming and shaming … ) This week they are in Edinburgh and today they took me out for lunch.
Uncle Alan and Auntie Catriona
We went to The Hub which I think might be fast becoming my new haunt. I was there with Jeni last week - so it seemed fitting to return with her parents - and had realised how nice and competitively priced it is. For example, if you order a muffin (which I am prone to doing) you don’t just get a muffin thrown down on a plate in front of you, you get a muffin beautifully presented with cream, a raspberry and dusted in icing sugar. All for under £2!
Anyway, it was really nice to catch up with Catriona and Alan. They were also able to deliver a bag of clothes to me from mum (she’s lending me some items which should hopefully be well suited to the Italian climate) as well as some little gifts from my parents recent holiday in Ireland … Yummy chocolate fudge for Andy, and a yummy looking candle like one of the ones below for me:
I haven’t tried to eat it. Yet.

Why do you call Michael Palin ‘uncle alan’?
Why do you call your mum ‘aunt catriona’?
Ha ha! Clearly I am confused and have issues.

I was thinking the same thing about your Aunt. Y’all look a lot alike.
