Tuesday night , headed for the bright lights with the first stop being the Standing Order for a quickie before tracking down the squad who were in the Auld Hundred. Table was booked for us at the New York Steam Packet in Rose Street, which was handy as it was a BYOB set up - and we had several nice bottles of wine with us.
There was another group in the place with us , the young lady , Bridget, an "upside down " lady was also celebrating her birthday, so the evening turned out to be fun.
On the road home we stopped off for a nightcap in the george hotel, before heading back to a wet and windy Penicuik.
Long day in the house yesterday , busy papering and painting - however, a couple of calls came in with work in Norwich and London in January and also another Runcorn run on Monday , and one to Birmingham in the pipeline.
Busy next week with Runcorn , and then two days training in Edinburgh.
Missed the Colinton and Currie Cryptic Council last night, but there are only so many hours in a day !!
Wet and wild this morning , looks like the UK is disappearing under a deluge of water, and no respite for a couple of days - the roads are busier which is normal as folks will not stand in the rain or walk when it is so bad , they take their cars.
Wine club tonight , Italian wines with appropriate side plates and a big crowd expected.

Hi Stuart,
Nice to know you are still alive and kicking!! Sorry to hear about 'wee Jeannie'. No one bothered to let us know.( Nothing new there though!!) Saw her a couple of months ago when I took the Grandkids up to let Marion see them. Used to take them up from time to time and always got her woes and troubles. Hope you and Ann are keeping well.
Ceejay,
We were wondering why you or the boys were not present, sorry no one told you.
Aunt Marion and Robert are up for the week staying with Uncle Andrew, Both are very frail with Marion down to about 7 stone. may be worth trying to see them if you can.
