Early one morning - before the sun was rising.

Nice and quiet here at the moment, apart from the noise of the falling rain on the conservatory roof. However at this time of the morning, after yet another bad night it is very soothing.

I have just checked out the "tracker" on this blog and I see that the "Michael Hexel" lot seem to be still nice and active and stirring up the populace with their scam e mail.

Tuesday was relatively quiet apart from the receipt of yet another letter from our bungling incompetents at Edinburgh City Council, which had the effect of "lighting the blue touch paper" once more and sending us back into our regular low orbit !!! It looks as though it could go on forever - the outcome was that I got all fired up and took the opportunity to update the ever expanding file of documents we hold - bearing in mind that "what goes round - comes round".

Collected Dr Disaster @ Captain Calamity and we headed off to Bonnyrigg for a meeting at Lodge Dalhousie 720. Good attendance of about 107 brothers but this did include a big deputation of 33 from the Provincial Grand Lodge of Mid and East Lothian. The election of office bearers took place so Craig Gordon, the last of the long line of progressive office bearers will be going to the Chair on 21st November. I even discovered that i am going back to my old office of Assistant Treasurer once again - following a year out.

The Scottish Security Association ( SSA) have a "Scotsec" security Exhibition at the Audi Centre Hillington, Glasgow, which I really should try to attend later today. Depends on how my friendly dentist treats me this morning. The exhibitions are usually very good, run by a small dedicated core of members on the Committee, an with an choice of topical seminars well worth a visit.

The Mercat Bar is having another of their excellent "Wine Dinners" on Saturday night (24th) so I have that to look forward to - four courses and some nice wines - should be able to let what little hair I have down once again.
