Duncan and Flora's Golden Anniversary





Per an earlier post, please find attached hereto a photo of Aunt Flora and Uncle Duncan and two family photos on the occasion of their golden anniversary. We had the extreme honor of attending the event in Dunoon. Their two wonderful children, John MacKillop and Wee Flora (a.k.a, Flora Drummond) organized an astonishing array of events for their parents and relatives from three continents. The photo is of two of the most wonderful people you could ever hope to meet - despite their being ferociously pro-Labour with a slight SNP twinge.

Happy Birthday to the World's Greatest Aunt


My Aunt Flora is a genuinely wonderful person and today is her birthday. Aunt Flora is my mother's kid sister and she made our most recent trip to Scotland utterly fantastic. It was our honeymoon as well as Aimee's first trip abroad and we've probably never had a better time.

Aunt Flora and her loving husband, Uncle Duncan, took care of us in every conceivable way. We spent a lot of time in Dunoon and then they took care of getting us to the Isle of Mull where we stayed in Tobermory. Aunt Flora, Uncle Duncan, and my mother were born on Mull.

We've sent them many photos of Nickolas, but one reason we started this website was that we kept crashing our relatives' e-mail systems with large photo files.

So Aunt Flora, thank you again for a phenomenal time in Scotland and Aimee and I look forward to reciprocating the next time that you're stateside.

I'm having difficulty uploading a photo from the Scotland trip, so please accept the one above of Aunt Flora's older sister holding the Little Pup as temporary substitute.
