Yet more words, etc

Back to restless nights and severe cramps, but whether the china man's ministrations had anything to do with that I do not know ?

But headed into town and found another parking place, thought I was fine, not on the pavement, however some bright person had a better idea and parked so close that , (Slim as I am !!!) there was no way I was getting in by the drivers door. I had to release the handbrake and push the car out before i could get the door open.

We were quiet enough for Jamie and Connor to do a little posing instead of working , which suited them.

I had a phone call from Dan the Man , whose friend Alistair Kane ( also a former telegraph boy with the Post Office) is over visiting his parents from his new home in the Philippines. He is a member of the masonic fraternity, his Grandfather Walter Kerr was a member of No 1 in 1947 but went on to become a founder member of the Rifle Lodge. Alistair joined in Tasmania, the Roland Lodge and is now a member of the Jose Abat Santos Lodge in the Philippines, where incidentally freemasonary is very much on the increase, so hopefully we will meet up before he goes home.

The funeral of the late Michael Lynch is on Friday 22nd at 10 a.m. in Warriston Crematorium.

I see that young Andy Murray hammered his way though the first round of the Australian open Tennis, well done - but it will not get any easier.

Susan Boyle was at the pantomine in edinburgh on Sunday night , where she bought sixty tickets and treated a bus load of her friends, she even ended up on stage when alan Stewart the panto dame was taking the micky out of her, but she took it in good form and gave him a big hug. Shame she is not cool enough to be considered for the Brit Awards.
