The boys and their beer coming home from Belgium

Alex and the boys are just back from a long weekend trip to Belgium.  Some wee blog post or another in the future I’ll tell you all about Alex and Ross’s beer project but, in the meantime,  it’s suffice to say that the boys combine their love of running with their love of beer and use both as an excuse to visit new places and have good fun! Gordon's not fussed about running, but he’s reached an age where he’s more than happy to join in with the beer-drinking aspect of the project!

The main reason for their trip was the Brussels half marathon. Unfortunately Ross couldn’t run as he has a bad dose of the lurgy, but Alex enjoyed the race and ran a pretty respectable time. Yup, there’s still plenty of life in the auld dog yet! I had a lovely time with Gemma while the boys were away; we didn’t venture off anywhere exciting, but just enjoyed spending some good quality blethering time together at home!

So, a good weekend was had by all and I’m looking forward to tucking in to the Belgian chocolate that was brought home. Having said that, I’m actually surprised they had any room at all for chocolate in the car......
