Katie in Scotland makes some new friends!

Posted on 16 September 2011 · 2 Comments

Here are a pair of Ella Bella fans, who travelled all the way from Glasgow to Hatfield for last year’s Ella Bella concert, and who popped up in Edinburgh in August to say hello and discover Katie at the National Gallery of Scotland.

Madison and Charlotte seemed to like Katie too, thank goodness, and it was lovely to catch up with the delightful Davidson family. They sent the stunning Crystal Champagne glasses a while back, created by Glencairn Crystal and engraved with Katie and Ella Bella. I wrote about them on my other blog (see HERE).

Now that Katie is properly finished, perhaps tonight’s the night to get out my Katie glass and have a tipple to celebrate. Do you think it would matter if I used Whisky instead of Champagne…?

As a slightly accident prone person, I don’t think I’d EVER dare use those wonderful glasses!

Ha ha! Oh dear Mary, that’s so funny. We are TERRIBLE in our house. It’s the weashing up that does for things very often. Anyway, the glass survived it’s whiskey baptism (as did I) and is now safely put away!
