Peebles

We went for dim sum with my parents this morning but my Mum wasn't feeling well, so they had to cut the visit short and head home.

Feeling energises and not wanting to waste the day, Tom and I jumped in the Figaro and went for a drive. Before we knew it we were crossing in to the Scottish Borders.

We parked up in Peebles and went for a wander around the town which had a chocolate academy, tweed museum and an Olympic gold postbox.

We went for a coffee at Coltman's Delicatessen where we had some tasty cakes.

We stopped off at Ikea on our way home, where I really wanted to buy a mini circus tent. I settled for the more grown-up option of buying a bar cart and cocktail glasses in all shapes and sizes.

For a new challenge, I'm going to teach myself how to mix lots of different cocktails. I'm calling this one a Raspberry Island Ice Tea as it's a Long Island Ice Tea with a shot of Chambord.
