Sunday p.m., still standing (sitting really), full of X Factor, Strictly Come Dancing, and red wine -
Saturday the Grill was really busy all day and then into the evening with three bigger parties in for meals. Works party; 25th Wedding anniversary , and a birthday party - but as I was elsewhere during the evening I can only hear the feedback.
I attended the Grand Superintendents Annual Dinner for the Province of Midlothian, the final one for Alex Mooney before he demits office after three years in post. Good attendance at the Bonnyrigg Lodge, (Dalhousie No. 720). Main guest was Ian Fraser, First Principal of Supreme Grand Royal Arch of Scotland, and guest speaker was the Deputy Headmaster of Salter's Gait School, Dalkeith, which caters for children with extreme learning difficulties. The school was the one of the primary beneficiaries of charitable aid from the Province for the past three years.
Managed to get a lift home with RGB who had been working yet another long day between the Mercat bar and Mercat Grill.
Bit of a dark foreboding sky when we left the lodge.
Homewards, yet another sleepless night and then up and away to open up at the Mercat Grill this morning. Busy day once again, and the Mercat Bar was even busier with the rugby crowds who were heading for the Scotland v South Africa game at Murryfield ( bit of a serious thrashing for the Scots).
Currently still MIA is RGB whose birthday today is slowly passing without him.
