Awoke at 4 am to the sound of pouring rain, so chappie was right yesterday when he told Claire and I that if we watered the plants at The Dolphin Inn the heavens would open !!!Have added a few more pics from last week's wedding, dining room looking nice, and Billy the manager was in his glory, Manager's perks getting to wipe stains from ladies frocks.
No prizes for guessing the mystery speaker, send answers on any old grubby £5 notes. Nice touch to get the chefs in to say thank you for a job well done.
Headed to town last night missing the bowls, to attend the monthly meeting of the Lothian and Borders Police Branch of the I.P.A. (International Police Association). Edinburgh gets quite a few requests for hospitality from all over the World so the committee are always meeting new "Police faces" regularly, just as our counterparts do for our members when travelling abroad.
My next visitor is the Secretary of No 18 Section, USA, based in Richmond, Virginia, travelling around Europe and Scandinavia on a cruise ship and calling at South Queensferry for a days visit to Edinburgh and Environs.
Need to finish with another gripe - getting fed up with these adverts which claim that certain products will do "up to" certain performances. Obviously Broadband speeds of Internet connections; petrol consumption of cars; etc., but mine is with "Loo Bloo's" claiming to keep the toilet clean and fresh for up to four weeks - I reckon that we are lucky to get a week out of ours !!! and it annoys me.
