On the campaign trail with Alex!

Alex has really exceeded himself in the last few days. Paid a visit to New Abbey in Dumfries and Galloway.

 

Where he visited the ruined Sweetheart Abbey and  the New Abbey Corn Mill.

 

Here he is, about to take the reins. Could this be a premonition of things to come?

 

 

And here he is again, nose to the grindstone, as all our politicians would have us believe they are!

 

But that's not all, he also found time to visit Club Med II.

 

 

Last time I saw Club Med II was at Garden Island in Sydney, over 10 years ago, when she was in the dry dock having some work done. Actually I had lunch on board. It was really good although the staff were most apologetic that it didn't come up to the normal standard when they were cruising No langoustine! Quel horreur!

 

And he found time to take in a bit of culture...

 

 

Taking in the Titian exhibition currently on at the National Gallery of Scotland.

 

And finally, that promotional picture beloved by politicians, with the distinctive Edinburgh skyline in the background. Pity about the scaffolding on the esplanade:(

 

 

 

You have to admit, the man has energy! Watch this space:)
