A Bottle a day might drive the Tramworks away

So the tram works saga continues,  I was in at the Mercat Bar last night doing a wee bit of DIY,  and although the large storage container had been moved from the front of teh Bar it had been replaced by two JCB tractor units and two cars belonging to the workies.   We pay £393 for a block ticket for the NCP car park round the corner, and these blokes are parking on our doorstep free of charge,   talk about "rubbing it in"  - no wonder the traders are sick to the teeth  of them.
I has been reported that the workmen are about to reassemble the Heart of Midlothian War memorial at Haymarket  junction,    if they are as good at that as the rest of the tramworks, it will be built upside down !!!

Anyway,  young RGB has just used his initiative and has a new IPA beer for sale in the Mercat Bar, produced by the  Alchemy Brewery, West Lothian and named Cairnpapple, specially labelled to commemorate the opening of the £1,000,000 tramline!!!!!!!!!!!
If there are any further delays, he may well sell One millions bottles before it runs through West Maitland Street -  probably enough bottles laid end to end to run the trams along.
