Menstrie

Dr Anne is in Menstrie visiting her friend SS.  They have a weekend of pampering planned.

This morning the twosome visited Sandra's mum who at 99 years old has just moved into a care home.  When they arrived the activities co-ordinator was holding a music session.  There was lots of fun and laughter.

The Legacy

Having been enthralled by Borgen, Dr Anne bought the recent series of The Legacy, another Danish drama.

 It tells the story of Veronica, a renowned artist's legacy when she dies after a short illness.  There is Frederick, the eldest, a lawyer, a guy who suffers with mental illness.  Emil is the younger son who has lived aff his mother for years.  Gro, a daughter by another man has managed the mother's business.  Then there is Sunshine another daughter by another man who gets a deathbed will leaving her the multi million pound house and grounds.

The series tells the aftermath.  

Not so gripping as Borgen. Dr Anne awards 7/10.

Daffodils

Beautiful daffodils this week.  A wonderful time of the year.


Trellis 2

The big trellis with the sun is complete.  It has taken four sessions to get it the way mother would have wanted.  Dr Anne is happy it is completed.








Trellis

Dr Anne is on holiday.  The weather has brightened up and she headed outdoors.  She has spent 8+ hours at the trellis.  It is the very best she can do.  One down and only three to go...
