First day/night back to work since Easter break hence the reason for such a late post but wanted to draw attention to the wonderful lassies who were braving the bitter weather on Monday to hand out Easter eggs to the kids so that they wouldn't be disappointed going home empty handed.
My partner and i had travelled all the way from Wick with our 2 kids (7 + 5) unaware that it had been cancelled (blue skies and sunshine for a change in Wick :lol:) and when we arrived we sat in the car waiting for the storm, yes storm, to abate when there was a rattle at the window and a lovely young lassie explained that it had been cancelled but gave us 2 eggs so that the kids wouldn't be disappointed.
I don't know of any other event that i've been to in the county where such a nice thing has happened, it would have been just as easy for them to stay indoors, where it was nice and cosy, than do what they did.
It was a rubbish day (weather wise) but we still went home with a warm and fuzzy feeling thanks to those lassies.
A BIG THUMBS UP TO SCALLAYWAGS :lol:
