Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Its an interesting piece folks, no one knows for sure its date,thought to be 12th century.

Certainly on the English side of the border but there must be a strong Scottish connection.

Hi

Shows how much I know, they look Egyptian to me.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good Morning Each,don't know what the weather's doing as It's still dark outside,but can't hear any wind or rain as yet,

Had a call from an old flame during the week wanting to meet for a 'catch-up' which We did last night..He was just divorced from His first Wife when I knew Him,but apparently has been married and divorced twice more since....I'd forgotten just how egotistical and boring He was then and He hasn't changed a bit...I was Home and in bed with My book by 10pm...Think He had Me in mind for Wife number 4 ....See Ya All later,x

Not sure about the Scottish connection in Your pic' Nom.but I'm sure Men didn't wear kilts then as they're worn now...It does look a wee bit Egyption with the short skirts

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good morning May and all to follow, dark and damp but supposed to brighten up here over the border.

BTW did the Edinburgh trams ever get off the ground. ?

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good morning folks. Surely they would be planes then Nom?

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good morning

May I take it you won't be seeing Mr Boring again

I'm out with a friend today ... she wants to go to watch a ballroom dancing competition so I agreed to go with her ... my turn to be bored I'm afraid ... I'd rather be dancing than watching

Have a good day everyone

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good Morning All. It sounds like you had a fun night (NOT) May ! The number of "ex's" says it all really. Hopefully, you got a free meal at least.

Nom.. Re: the Edinburgh trams. In short - yes they have been up and running for a while now. The whole scheme was/is a fiasco insomuch as it was massively over budget and took years longer to complete than estimated. At the end of the day only one route (Airport-York Place) was built. The whole fiasco still rumbles on about extensions and costs. All that said, it's a fast (ish) frequent service. I always use it when visiting Edinburger. If you take your car into the city centre, you loose the will to live after a short time ! (imho)

I haven't been In Edinburgh for a couple of Years,but Methinks some heads are about to roll re' the cost of the whole shebang.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Ta Nephroin, and May, i certainly miss the trams of old in Newcastle city center.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

I've just been told that my beautiful Grandaughter Kayleigh will be coming down from Wick in the Highlands for a few days in October. Can't wait to see her. Of course it will mean a few blank expressions from me when trying to understand what she is saying, but she does at least remember to speak more slowly when talking to me.
