A day off in sunny Edinburgh.

Change in the weather this morning, lovely bright day, but cold and with frost forecast for tonight - summer is not even a memory any longer - but looking on the bright side - we did not have a hose pipe ban!!!
So, off to town today, few jobs to do and I ended up in Palmerston Place, where our beloved tram workers were hard at work digging up the same road that had been open for over a year, and as usual we had one digging, one watching, one supervising and the JCB driver as an interested onlooker !!
BUT - the first of our new £2million trams has arrived, now safely locked away in the custom built depot at Gogar.
Wee walk in the sunshine and ended up passing the home of our author, Robert Louis Stevenson - nice bit of the town, and I can just imagine him sitting there in the nearby gardens - bit of a change from the Island of Hawaii where he died.

For todays OOOO factor we have a tottie wee dog.
Tomorrow - lunch with the 49 Club, so I had better take a camera again.
