The inner workings

Of what used to be called the Street of Light and now seems to be Silent Light. Whatever it's called it's less impressive in the day than at night.

I was through in Edinburgh today as I'd been invited to join some former colleagues for the retirement lunch of two people I'd worked with. There's a lot of it about just now. It was so lovely to be invited to join the celebration and to offer some reassurance about how I've found life after full time and permanent work. I never need reminding about how lucky I was to work with such a delightful bunch of people and I was really happy to be part of it today.

It was the kind of weather which even the most determined lover of Christmas and/or Edinburgh would struggle to appreciate. But the atmosphere at lunch was perfect.
