• We visited Tim and Lorna and also Neil and Barbara over the New Year period in North Berwick which was lovely, but cold!
  • Tim took part in the New Year's Day swim!
  • We also walked around St Abbs Head and had a meal in the local fish and chip restaurant - and had hot chocolates in the local ice cream/hot coffee cafe.
  • We also went to The Light Show at Edinburgh Castle.
