Bin liners

Seems like Newcastle's bins are being as frequently collected as Edinburgh ones at the moment. However, they did make a pleasing linear scene.

A long lie, then brunch at Stewart's in Jesmond. Three of us opted for waffles and bacon and the whole sugar rush experience was a serious trip. It took me all my time and concentration to recover enough to get on the right train back up to Edinburgh.

Met Lady F's firstborn for an enlightening and highly entertaining coffee and chat and then headed for home to have welcome night with my feet up.

I was sorry to see this chap has gone; I recall a very amusing story that Stewart Bremner told me and MAiT which renewed my appreciation of his dancing and music.
