Mrs. 40 wanted a short break to Edinburgh as a present for her birthday at the beginning of April....So with the children off school we took off on Wednesday morning by ferry to Scotland from Northern Ireland(2 hour crossing) We visited many bagpipe shops and all things Scottish (or chinese or pakistani????)

The yellow in the fields is oilseed rape in flower...potato plants are 8 inches high and spring barley is about 6 inches high in places.

More pics later, my pic uploading is real slow after I upload about 5 photos??????
