Room with a view - but not for sale

The classic room with a view, but not any room, a cludgie, indeed , a workie's cludgie ( outside loo - for the uninitiated) sited in Palmerston Place for the use of the tramworkers, all mod cons, heating, running water, etc - changed days. Now I know where they all disappear to when it gets cold and wet.

Sitting in the lounge at the airport, drove over early in case the weather was bad, but instead of snow there is flooding at the roundabout off the A* and in the airport car parks where water wings and rubber dingys are the order of the day.
No queues at all, auto check in, and it was me that was holding up the search queue as i was first and had still to get belt and boots off, good job there were no holes in my socks.

Servisair lounge quiet is fairly quiet although I have a companion who has been on the phone for the last forty minutes calling the world - just waiting for him to ring Bart Simpson !! Just a wee bit annoying - it could be driving me to drink, perhaps.
Don't anyone accuse me of twittering @stuartblaikie, as this bloke takes the biscuit. That is now eight calls so far , not that i am counting.

Terrible to hear of the death of the young trainer in Seaworld, at the jaws of the killer whale, victim number three for the whale it would appear. Just tragic, and having seen them in Orlando it is a shame as they and the trainers are such majestic creatures.

Thought the police in Grampian Region were a bit OTT in asking the staff in the kilt shop in Aberdeen to stop displaying their ABE (Anyone But England) T shirts which have been produced for the football world Cup - but it certainly has given the shop lots of additional publicity.

I keep forgetting , but we have just missed Sandra's birthday again , however as she and William are in Teneriffe. and we could not get over with them , we can just wish her well, not sure which add on to 21 + it is.

That is call No 9 in progress.
