Hi Everyone,

Travelling up to Edinburgh this Friday 11th to drop Jan & the Girls at the Airport,for a weekend in Spain,staying overnight at the Travelodge,they fly early Sat morning,coming back Tuesday.
Rather than drive back to Cumbria,then travelling back up Tuesday,I have decided to make a long weekend of it,have booked in the Premier Inn South Queensferry for 3 nights as a base so to speak,I realize this is wee bit short notice,would there be any of you guys available Sunday for a wee impromptu meet up in South Queensferry,fully understand if you can't,just thought it would be nice to meet up again,many thanks in anticipation.

Best Regards.

John.

Looks like it was better weather than the west coast had! Rugby tournament was a wash out, most of the boys were crying it was so cold and wet and miserable. The few scores they managed to get were lost when the paper turned to pulp, so no winners. A whole season's training washed away, bless them! :( Next year Lewis goes into P4 so this was his last year in the micro's.
