Schengen Visa Approved

Good news Arthur. There are some brilliant shops and cafes in the small streets BEHIND Prince's Street - a lot cheaper than on the main drag.
Pack your clubs and go and have 18 holes at WEST LINTON - a few miles outside the city.

Thanks, Liane for your congratulations ... and also for wishing us a nice trip which, we hope, will coincide with our forthcoming 1st wedding anniversary.

Thanks, Eula ... and I hope you manage to get yours soon too. What a hassle it is, considering Britain's membership [albeit not exactly through the electorate's unanimous choice!] of the EEC.

As for the current exchange rate ... enough said ... but I'll certainly do my best not to think overmuch about it!

Thanks, Alan. Yeah, you're right! And *they make a pleasant change from the rather mundane, "run of the mill" chain stores one finds in almost all reasonably sized towns throughout the entire UK nowadays ... more "individuality" about them, somehow.

Likewise, with the small taverns and pubs to be discovered "off the beaten track"; Rose Street being a prime example.

Sadly, yesterday's weather was absolutely appalling ... 'Auld Reekie' being even more windswept than usual, and awash with torrential rain. So you can imagine how this deluge would affect the golf course at West Linton!

I hope you're well on the mend after your recent accident, mate. Regards too, to Hanna.
