Busy morning at The Mercat Bar, run off our feet especially during lunch time - Even had a French trio in who had two dinners each.
Headed home sharp, changed and then northwards to the the Fair City of Perth, sitting on the River Tay, where I had a meeting of the O S M there.
Arrived early and managed to get this picture of the River tay , and the bridges. this is where the old Port was and it is not so many years ago that ships of any size stopped going there. The town is nice, not so busy as the big cities, but with a pedestrianised centre.
Stopped off at the Bothy Restaurant , next to the theatre, which had a show on later , and managed to get a table, but had to be out by 6.30 p.m. as there was a full hiuse due to the show.
the place was set out very nice, mainly on one level but with a special private dining room downstairs which was beatiful. I think the place is tied iin Mathew Gloa's the maker of The Famous Grouse Whiskey. Unfortunately , I was not totally impressed with my meal, just a couple of wee things, but it was served very quickly and efficiently by a very nice young lady in a mini kilt - however, the barman in the brown and white kilt looked like a sack of tatties, with black shoes and socks round his ankles, not, in my opoinion the way a kilt should be worn or look like.
Off to the lodge bulding in time to meet mt friend kenny from Pitlochry and his mate Andy. The Degree was very good, four candidates, and a good attendance with Provincial and the Grand Visitor being present. Manged to stay for a bite aftrerwards, again an excellent meal.
Home at a steady toot down the M9 and over the Forth Road Bridge, stopping off via the Bush to check on our youthful tenants.
