Somewhere under the rainbow


Easter Sunday and I did not have an egg , not even a fried one !! But , nevermind, Mrs. B. was given a lovely bouquet of roses by Jo Jo, which saved me!! miserable person.

had to waken the bold Sparky so that we could get away to the Cash and Carry, what was worse was that his sister was up at his house looking for him as he was due to be dog sitting.
Not sure waht was going on at Costco's, gates were closed so we ended up at Bookers, Slateford, and then into the bar. Had a problem getting parked due to all the church goers at the cathedral and the church around the corner. So I had a shouting match with a traffic warden , "L" driver on his scooter who was weanting me to carry all the stuff from the car about a quarter mile - not bloody likely.
Headed hoem as the sun was shining and took myself out to pull a few weeds, and ended up falling asleep in the sun for an hour.
It began to cloud over a bit, so after dinner I got out the steed of steel went for petrol, and stopped to get a photo of Penicuik's first round about, and the new Lidl store being built - we will need to wait and see how many shops close due to it's appearance.
Decided to have a short run, out by Carlops and onto the moor road, when I saw the rainbow ahead, and as usual when you are trying to find that ellusive pot of gold, it keeps on moving further away - but it was impressive and the photos do not do it justice.
So, there were a few happy chickens yesterday, Hearts managed a 1 - 1 draw with Celtic at Tynecastle Park, while Rangers picked up three points for their win, so the Premier league is back to a tight finish at the moment.
Not really following the US masters golf this year, but from what I have seen , the golf is amazing and the course is in wonderful condition with greens running so fast you need to have a surgeons touch.
Wee bit of reminiscence this evening when we watched John Travolta and Olivia Newton John in "Grease" - a great movie with good music and dancing, interesting to see how they have both progressed over the years.
Early start again in the morning to get the Mercat up and running.
