Trams running - but to where (and when) in the snow maybe


Rather chilly outside with snow forecast tonight - however we did miss out on yesterday's heavy falls which affected the Borders and some wider areas further north.
The lads over from the Bar have a new poster on display, with an astute observation and some words of wisdom about the tramworks !!!!!!
The tram in Princes Street, our tourist attraction has been removed, at considerable cost to a storage depot in West Lothian as the new Depot at Gogar is not finished yet - another unplanned expense, would not be surprised is someone does not nick it for scrap .
I was in the Chemist's shop today and spotted on one display a number of packets of dental floss sticks, half the packets priced at £1.99p and the remainder at £2.49p - Inflation a bit over the odds or daylight robbery !!!!!
Talking of which, I have had an alert regarding a scam being run in a Sainsbury's Store (not local) where a checkout operators was sticking a £20 cash withdrawal on the customers bill without telling the customer - serious lesson to be learned, always check your bill thoroughly before you leave the checkout and challenge the staff if there is a discrepancy.
