Nile Valley

Another Monday and another (early morning) commute across the water to the Big City. 

Another coffee and croissant at Mòr. Then another day on the 5th Floor trying to put a spin on political stuff. In the middle, a pleasant burger (home made) in the staff canteen. 

In the evening I expanded my horizons beyond quick, cheap, delicious South Asian food, and tried out quick, cheap and delicious Sudanese food. I will be back - The Nile Valley Cafe, almost next door to the mosque (for those who know the city). 

I had seen it recommended on a YouTube clip and hoped (rightly as it turned out) it too would be completely devoid of fake "festive" nonsense. The staff were friendly, which is all the "festive" spirit I need. 

My Blip is the Garden Lobby in the Scottish Parliament. Although almost deserted in my shot, a certain former First Minister had just barrelled through it on her way to the tradesmen's exit. She did not look happy.
