Diary of an Edinburgher

Off the hook

Jenna came to take Archie out for the day, so we decided to pop across town, a place we rarely venture to. Why? We wanted to see the photography exhibition by our illustrious fellow blipper, ’im indoors. And fabulous it was too, though I missed the captions that accompany his photos on blip.

We were less impressed with Ocean Terminal itself, which seems to be in terminal decline. Many shops are closed, and there are not as many eateries as there used. However, despite this lack of choice of retail establishements, JR managed to browse for quite a long time, while I had a cuppa and a passable scone.

After Archie's excitement of a day out with the girls (photo by Jenna) guess who arrived later? Elizabeth has arrived back from her USA holiday! Such excitement! He was up at the window and went crazy when he spied her - crying like a wee stuck piglet. I'm sure the neighbours must wonder what on earth we're doing to him! He's gone off for an evening walk with her. He'll sure sleep tonight.

PS I've just rung in to be told that my jury services are not needed for duty tomorrow, and in fact, I'm off the hook! YAY!
