For Kith and Kin

Yesterday was an early start for us at the Braemar Gathering. In position by 8.30 am to watch and tag onto the opening march through the village. We got beautiful weather for it. :-)

@happypat Oh, good for Jo! We saw Hamza (and I got a photo or two). He looked very smart in his kilt and hair right down to his calf muscles!

[Issi Bannerman]

@casablanca Yes he did! I will post an image of the royal group tomorrow. Today's post had to be Mhairi's departure from Portsmouth. Too much going on at the moment ... the year is disappearing!
