On the surface - not much to show for it

They say that time flies when you are enjoying yourself - maybe, but it also flies when you are busy - and occasionally you can be very busy with little to show for it - that's how I feel at the moment. Few minutes ago realised it was already Tuesday night - and more busy days ahead. So - what's happening you might ask ;- me, I was happy on Sunday morning, started out on a nice morning, clearing up the garden after the "2nd blawbag gale" broken fence panels, etc - fired up my garden chimera and had fun watching the flames - BUT - short lived, as the heat was too much and my beloved fire cracked up. Next one will be bigger and better.

Pleased to see that the Upside Down adults (Roz and Rick) have made it safely back to the Land of Oz, I was getting worried that the prison flights had been suspended !!! and / or Oz was no longer receiving Deportees from the UK or France - only joking - I believe they had an amazing new Year in Paris to end off a journey of a lifetime.

Menu is ready for the Burns Dinner at the Dolphin Inn on the 28th, looks good, especially with the Iron Bru sorbet and the Deep Fried Mars Bars - but as I am off to Kia's wedding I will miss it - however, will make up by taking in the wine meal at the Mercat Bar on 21st.

Roads were busy today, two car smash on the A720 by pass at 5.45 p.m. eastbound near Straiton - chaos once again, with a big car park stretching all the way back to Hermiston Gait - not a good night for the motoring public. Possible tragic event of a Lothian Bus at the Commonwealth Pool - bus was stationary with an ambulance pulling up at 4.15 p.m. and a huddle of folks within - bus still there along with the Police at 5.50 p.m. - does not look good for somebody (unfortunately).

Esk 42 RA tomorrow night, first meeting of the Year and an Honorary Membership being awarded - should make it all being well.
