Tis a very small world indeed

To continue !!! as promised with the continuing saga of the day out with the Upside Down adults . We returned to Edinburgh and made for Hendricks Bar to see Sir Christopher and Miss Talk a Lot - mine hosts who had also been very good to Scottie and Robbie while they were here.
Roz and Rick were introduced to everybody including the Staff - and as they "what a small world" - Roz half recognised the barman, over on a working holiday from Oz, and when they started chatting she realised that she actually knew him as she had worked for his father and knew him as a youngster coming in and around the Company offices.
Something to tell the Grandchildren about.

We left Hendricks Bar in the rush hour traffic and "sods law", got stuck in a total gridlock in Grove Street due to some so called emergency roadworks in Palmerston Place, it was so bad we ended up pulling into a parking space, got a ticket from the meter and then walked round to the Mercat Bar for our dinner.
Going back a wee bit, we spoke to the dog walker with this little twelve week old puppy while in Gleneagles Hotel. We then met her again by which time the dog was exhausted and being carried off to the the Kennels, she was aided by the porter who was carrying the doggies luggage !!!

But to continue, the Mercat Bar was lively, and amongst the revellers were the team from Axios Systems - in good fettle with Meno experimenting with some body's camera - stick to the computers young man
