Today we headed to the coast and spent the afternoon in Stonehaven at the international market and the beach. I love Stonehaven - its so unlike many of the east coast fishing villages. Its had its fair share of misery and problems with unemployment etc but its still a gorgeous place.
We toured the market first for lunch, Jnr buying cheese (in french!) and Nick and I both had a pot each of giant gambas pan fried right there in front of us in garlic olive oil. We finished off our picnic with a pot of green olives stuffed with sun dried tomatoes and some baklava - all eaten on the beach in 25 deg C.
Tonight we've had a very enjoyable evening at Bike Boss's - BBQ, tarte flambée, wine, tales, chocolate and a pavlova to die for courtesy of Mrs Bike Boss ...
This week I need to do some work to shift this weekends excesses :)
