Flowers in the Window

Sunny Friday afternoon in the office. With the window open and the sun blazing through, seagulls outside, it feels a little like I am coding by the beach. I wish.

There are a couple of trendy new pubs opening up in canonmills near the flat. One called the 'The Other Place' opened last week and seems have been doing a roaring trade.

Today however Mrs B walk past and the roof had collapsed. Rubble and glass everywhere and the paramedics treating a couple of injuries. Probably not what you want one week in. Seems like everyone was OK though.

Our friend from London was up, so went for dinner and a drink. When we went to the pub and I offered to get drinks she asked me to get her a hot chocolate. I'm not sure if it's because she is from the South of England but it's exceptionally hot out there.

When I reluctantly asked for it, the barman looked like I was crazy. I'm generally of the opinion that those coffee machines in pubs are basically just for show. He had to check whether it was actually plugged in.
Still he made it somewhat bemused by the whole affair.
