Saturday 25th July

I flew up this morning. Not sure how it happened, but I booked an earlier flight than usual and had to get up at 4.15am to get to the airport! Your mum picked me up and we went for breakfast before heading home.
We took you out for a walk around the Lochs at Drumpellier it was such a nice day. I feels so good walking about with you. I love it. We had a good carry on all day and loads of good pix were taken.
You got the fright of your life when I sneezed and you started to cry your wee eyes out.
Next day I got a call to say my last remaining uncle passed away last night. So I visited my aunt and cousins before heading back to you.
Sunday was good because I'd booked a later plane home too. So I saw more of you than usual, but I was knackered next morning having to get up for work. Next visit will be your Christening. Look forward to it. I might even dress up for it!

Tuesday 14th July

A quick visit today after we drove up from Newcastle last night for a gig in Glasgow. I turned up at the door and you were out in the street trying to walk in your wee stroller. You looked like you would have been down the street in a shot if you could. There wasn't much time with you before I had to head back into town for the gig.
The gig was one of the guys from Brian Wilson's band, and one day you'll learn what a talent BW was.
I popped in to see you the next day as we headed off home. But not before I had you laughing at my Bob Dylan's "Blowing In The Wind." It's used in an advert on TV just now and you perk up everytime it comes on!

20 June

Couldn't get a flight under £200 for weeks. Couldn't wait that long to see you so I drove up this morning. Have a flash new BMW convertible that I parked at the end of the street so it didn't look like I was showing off. Went with you and your Mum shopping. Filmed you laughing your head off while I made you dance to Led Zep!

Sun 21 June

Fathers Day and your Granny's birthday too. I got a Fathers Day card for a Grandfather from you!! Your Gran took the hump at me being there on her birthday so I headed home early in the afternoon to save any argument. It didn't work apparently...she still fell out with your mum because she's talking to me now.
Anyway..it was worth the long haul up to see you, even if it was only for a few hours.
