Suffragettes ; things and Eilidh

Edinburgh was very busy today , big traffic diversions on as there was a parade of around 4000 women in the centre of the town, celebrating the actions of the suffragettes about 1905.

Mrs B said that she had seen Andrew Hardcastle from GMTV along with his wife and daughter in Princes Street when she was on her way up to see Archie and Tracy in the S. O. Perhaps he was up for the parade as Davina McColl was also allegedly in town.

Following MY recent complaint to Edinburgh District Council, which they have so far ignored, I had a totally dismissive response from the Director of Corporate services - so much for a caring Council - Investor's in People !!!! my bot, this lot need seriously sorting out - but they must remember "that was goes round, comes round".

I, along with many others had a SCAM e mail from a firm in Hong Kong , Michael Hexel, trading as HK - NSC. They are running a scam on Domain names , chancing micks. I am now at the stage of just deleting all "e " mails I get when I do not recognise the sender. Our Grant had a virus recently which went through his whole system and could have shut him down - took hours to remove.. And now we Edinburgh City Council supporting a scheme at the Pentlands Community Centre, Oxgangs, called "Computer Hacking for Dummies" , the title is to encourage youngsters to take an interest , but they claim that it will teach them how to prevent hacking.

STOP PRESS - young Baby Finlay will now be known as Eilidh Finlay, how lovely to pick a nice Scottish name, but I might need a phonetic spelling so I can pronounce it properly. Mother and child are still in hospital, but doing fine. May well be able to go and join the OOOOOOh brigade tomorrow, having managed to get a day off.
