Saturday night, sun has shone all day which was brilliant for those who took part in the Penicuik Hunter and Lass events today - really makes the day for everyone.

Very busy both yesterday and today down at the Mercat Grill and with all the pre bookings looks like tomorrow will be just as hectic -  good job we have such a good team working for us  - well done.

Had some lovely customers in from Carberry Towers (Amazing Escapes) this week, who hopefully enjoyed themselves. Also a few in who were staying at Drummohr Caravan Park - where there are many in this weekend to either run in or support friends in the Edinburgh marathon.

Edinburgh Marathon on Sunday, Scottish Cup final,   Ladies FA cup final,  grand prix,  plenty to keep everyone occupied.

Tom McInally has managed to get the first run in for the No 1 Region  Motor Cycle section, a with more in the pipeline  - and having the steed of steel nearly ready for its MOT I could be on two wheels again very soon.   No point in sitting at home waiting for the Doctors to tell me I am fit  to do things, I could wait till the sun sets for the umpteenth time.

Drinking Scotch, and talking Scottish, two different things -   last couple of days we had "Squee wiff" ;   cludgie;  dunkin biccies;  makes a change from Cockney English.

Had the upside down folks on the e mail,  young Scottie has now fled the land of Didgeridoo and is now feeling the chill winds in Edmonton, Canada -  not sure how happy his dad is,  but the cold will keep him at bay.   Even friends who we met in the USA  ( from Oz)  who are coming to the UK in July were on the Internet - so we look forward to seeing them during their visit.
