Sunday p.m. sun is setting in the west.

After our hectic day and night, I forgot to say that I had another "Turkish" experience yesterday , had the ears widened and then set on fire by the local Turkish barber in West maitland Street , and tio show there was no ill will sat tight and had a smooth shave with the open throat razor - what a good feeling.

So eventaully we made it out our beds and headed in to the town once again - as usual with Mrs. B. taking a sojourn through the shops from John Lewis along Princes street to The Mercat to meet up with me where I was doing a bit more work.
The bottom bar is looking really good and with new tiles and a a new carper due later in the week it will make a tremendous difference. Jamie and Eduardo were telling me that a group of twenty one blokes arrived at 9.10 a.m. for breakfast - a good start for a very busy day. Photos later when it is on a bit more.
Mr. Jamie Lloyd appeared this afternoon his school now being on the summer break so we will doubtless have the pleaseure of his company - and his young lady over the enxt two or three weeks.
Word from Young Michelle at Musselburgh who is sitting her driving test on Monday - so good luck to her.

Sunday roastlooked good, so rather than struggle when we got home we had a bite, followed by strawberries and cream then headed home to lounge in the back garden in this unusual display of sunlight - we believe that it will not last !!
There was some hubub going on around us with three different B B Q's, lots of chat,smoke and nom parking spaces nearby.
The refugees from the wedding carried on from where they left off last night, while I dozed off in the fresh air, to be awakened by Mrs. b. and the sound of tinkling crystal as she produced one, then another , etc., glass of "Bcks fizz" - the real thing , just to celebrate the sunshine.

Captian Calamity has just been on the phone, having been to his sister's birthday party , and nephew also, now taking strong cider and unlikely to be able to stand for the rest of the day.

Sir Christopher had let me know that the Escapee from Botany Bay (Paul Byrne) looking for the sue of a hacksaw no doubt and will be in The Mercat Bar sometime tomorrow.
back now to the Liverpool story.
