Made it to Colinton and Currie R A. last night where they had a visitor from the land of the upside down people - Harry Hepburn , a member of R. A Caledonia 177, from canberra, formerly No 803 in the Scottish Constitution. Nice wee photo of him , on right, with Alex Moonie, Provincial Grand superintendant (Left) and John McNeill ( with two ll's ) from Tranent.Harry actually originaes from Aberdeen and is over on a nine week holiday - taking in lots of masonic visits when he can.
Headed home in very thich fog - on the A720 Edinburgh City By Pass the overhead gantry boards were warning of thich fog - stating the obvious. Then on the A702 I ended up following someone in one of these tiny little Honda vans, with either a six volt system , or carbide headlights, ( I do remeber the old carbide lamps the miners had, also the police, and yes, there were cars with carbide headlights) who was crawling along causing havoc.
Great excitement today - yawn, as I believe that the UK Government ( Cabinet) is going to meet in Glasgow today , the first time in ninety years - wonder what the weegies will say about that.
Thick fog again this morning , but I had a lift in from RGB, however, the workmen are outside at the tramworks doing "something", probably too embarrassed to work when weather is clear in case their relatives and friends see them working. I did ask the forman if they would be finished by the summer !! but he cleared off not amused - but then again , neither am I.
Need to get on with some work.
