It's been a busy week for me sitting tests at work, attending opera meetings and learning songs for Oklahoma! I went to circuits for the first time in ages last week and my thighs were killing me for about 4 days! The instructor called it 'explosive training' - I just called it agony. On Thursday I tried a new hairdresser (Toni and Guy) - this is a big deal for me you know because I dread the hairdresser more than the dentist - and was really pleased with the results. On Friday Ross, Neil and I headed up to Skye to meet Donna and my folks in Portree for my cousin Billy's wedding (almost running over several suicidal sheep). The weather was glorious and the wedding was brilliant!
I also sat in the pub where I was conceived! It's called The Isles - hence why I was originally going to be called Isla, thankfully that didn't happen as now I would be Isla White! I've uploaded lots of photos from the weekend on to my bebo site - www.bebo.com/lornashanks1979. One of the highlights of the wedding was trying to cram as many people as possible in to the red phone box - much hilarity! On Saturday we drove over to Dingwall and picked up Ross's dad from the train station. At night we went to the National Hotel for dinner followed by karaoke in the Ross-Shire Club which was good 
craic. Of course I managed to drag myself up to the microphone for a bit of Mustang Sally! On Sunday it was my uncle's memorial golf tournament at Tain and Culbokie. Every year this is a great event, it was just a shame we had to leave to drive back to Glasgow. However, all in all it was a fantastic weekend of family and fun!
